Summer Traditions-Vineyard 2013

There's just something about them....I love the idea of returning to the same places with the same people each year. Our summer tradition of going to the Vineyard is one of our oldest, we've been going since I was a little girl. It truly feels like a 2nd home. It's the perfect place to soak up the sun, eat some fresh seafood, catch up with family and friends, and let loose. I love this tradition...

It was pretty cloudy at the start of the week, so we did lots of shopping, eating and reading...

Then, fortunately, the sun came out and we had some great beach days! 

Love the Vineyard-it's my happy place, and one of my favorite places in the world :) 

California Love... Part 2

Day 2 brought us to Mumm vineyards, a vineyard filled with amazing sparking wine and beautiful views. We meant to stop here for a bit, and ended up staying for most of the afternoon!

Perfect ending to a wonderful short-but-sweet vacation!! Thanks Alex for being such a fabulous hostess! xoxo Can't wait for the big day next summer!

California Love Part 1

This year for April Vacation, I got to travel across the country to visit my cousin, the bride-to-be-Alex!! We had a blast shopping for her wedding dress, tasting wedding cake, and of course visiting some amazing wineries. I just think it's so fun how instead of bar hopping, they all go to wine tastings out there...I'm already itching to go back and can't wait for the beautiful napa valley wedding next summer :)

Here's day one...San Francisco!
