On Saturday, we gathered together with some friends and headed out to Carmel Valley for a day of wine tasting and adult conversations. We are so grateful that we have a good sitter who was willing to spend the day with our boys and our friend's baby and son as well.
The day started with bloody marys at our house and we presented our sweet {pregnant} friend Traci with a sober survival kit since she was willing to drive the parents on the loose around all day.
We met more friends in the Valley and started our tastings at Joyce
| Dena, me, Heather, Traci and Apryl |
The boys at Parsonage tasting room
| Steven, Ryan, Kev, Tyler, Chuck |
Traci and I made the mistake of letting our husbands hold the cameras and I had about 30 pictures that looked like this at the end of the day.
I didn't pay attention to the name of this tasting room, but I also didn't like their wine, so I guess it's not important, right?
We headed outside to snap a few more pictures, but noticed our husbands were tapping in to their inner 10 year olds and found a good climbing tree.
After the wine tastings, we found a great little restaurant and sat outside for the next hour and a half talking and laughing.
Sorry Chuck and Heather that I didn't get a pic of you guys!
And on the way home, Traci proved that she is going to be a great mom and informed us that our 4 hour long adult spring break was over and we needed to be quiet now.
So we got home and returned to our normal parenting selves; the kids were thankful for that.
What a great day. Thanks, friends!

Sober survival kit - what a brilliant idea! Looks like such a fun weekend!
A break from the kids with friends is always so great and rejuvinating. You are so beautiful and I love your dress. Good times. And I know exactly what you mean with all the pictures. When my kids get a hold of my camera there are tons of crazy pictures.

What a blast! I love wine tasting, and we've had fun checking out some of the Virginia wineries here in the DC area. That sober survival kit is such a great idea!
The sober survival kit is presh.

What a fun weekend. I went to wine country way long ago (like hs) and want to go back so I can actually enjoy!
Love your cowboy boots and dress!!! Wine tasting sounds like so much fun right now!
What a fun day! I am so jealous! I have to tell you that I absolutely love your whole outfit! You looked gorgeous!
Your boots! Oh, how I love your boots! Looks like a perfect mini-break... And truly, boys will be boys. If we go on a hike, Jared and his roommate are automatically crawling into the trees and creeks (while I take pictures, naturally).
Just saw this, some awesome pictures. So...we get to do it again on Saturday right :)
I am so jealous!!! I've always wanted to take a day and do something like this. Looks like ya'll had a great time! I think the Sober Survivial Package was a genius idea, too! :O)
