Wine Country

 We were long overdue for a vacation, so a couple of weeks ago we just decided to plan a getaway to Sonoma County!

 A little feline friend joined our picnic.

 We again got lucky with our car rental and were able to take in the views with the top down! 

 It's so beautiful and peaceful out there that pictures really don't do it justice.

 It was harvest season, so many of the vineyards still had some grapes on their vines.

 The most gorgeous tasting room.


Winery tour, followed by a really cool food and wine pairing event.


 A cork tree!


 Wine in the making!

 Ellie and Clara had their own fun while we were away!




 Ellie had an awesome view at Disney on Ice with Nana.

Love these girls.



Ellie made breakfast for herself and Clara and then moved in close so that she could eat right next to her.

Fall has begun!

 We headed about an hour out of the city this past weekend hoping to pick some apples.  Unfortunately, this wasn't a good harvest season so they didn't have any apples on the tree this year for picking.  We had a lot of fun anyway and did some pumpkin hunting instead!



 Clara started laughing as soon as the hayride started moving!

 Looking for some good ones.  We had plenty to choose from!





 Pig races!
