Ok kids, I am going to try to keep this as short and sweet as possible. TRY being the key word here… In San Jose we stayed at the very swanky Hotel Valencia in the area of Santana Row. It’s a really cool area of San Jose with tons of shopping and a pretty happenin’…
Napa/San Jose Trip Part 2
On day two we woke up to a day full of aniticipation and I for one was most excited to find out what more all these grapes I’d seen the day before could do for my palette. Our first stop for the day was the Robert Mondavi wine tour which began promptly at 10 a.m….
Napa/San Jose Trip Part 1
Ok, so are y’all ready to actually “hear” about the trip? You are? Alright, alright! After we got our baggage (please know that it’s important to note here that I arrived with the smallest suitcase of the 4 women – this will be an interesting detail later…) it was time to eat. Obviously we were…
Where Do I Start?
So I thought I would blog about the trip to Cali in chronological order (day 1, day 2, day 3…) and then I thought, no, I’ll post about certain aspects of the trip categorically (the food {oh my gosh THE FOOD!}, the wine {oh my golly THE WINE!}, the accomodations {yeah, also pretty awesome!}, the…

Weekly Winners 8/10
August 3 – August 9 Okay, so I am a week or so off since these are even more pictures from our vacation that I have kept on reserve. But these are a little more “artsy” and well, I didn’t take any pictures this week so here are my last week’s “winners” for this week….
Beachy Keen
So yes, the little vacation was wonderful, except perhaps for the late dinner at the Big Fisherman on Saturday night with FIVE kids… oh the memories! But besides that and the fact that I could have stayed a day or two longer, it was a great getaway. Little G was OBSESSED with the birds and…
