Wine Tasting

What sounds better on a Friday afternoon than driving to the Finger Lakes for a little wine tasting? That's just what we did when Marilyn and Denny came to visit us for Mother's Day weekend. 

We started the day with brunch at Simply Crepes in Canandaigua, NY. My absolute favorite spot.

Then we headed to Three Brothers Winery, in Geneva, NY. They have three wineries and a microbrewery on the estate, each with it's own unique varieties and personalities. 

We learned a lot about grapes, harvesting and even got a tour of the wine cellar. 

We had a lot of fun sampling and taking in the scenery. 

Next, we drove to Belhurst Castle, on Seneca Lake to try some of their wines. Andrew and I went to Belhurst for our second wedding anniversary. It's a beautiful place for dinner or a weekend. I can't believe we're coming up on our eighth anniversary in a couple months! 

My sweet and still in love in-laws, who recently celebrated their 36th wedding anniversary. They really are a fun pair.  

It turned out to be a beautiful afternoon. The Finger Lakes region has so much to offer if you're interested in wine and you're looking for something different to do.

Got Any Cheese?

Last night, some of my favorite girlfriends came over for an evening of wine and cheese tasting. I think it goes without saying that when 8 ladies get together, there will be LOTS of conversation and laughs. Man, did we have a good time! I only wish I took this photo earlier because we're missing Lindsay, and everyone had their coats on, ready to head out. 

We all agreed that we love "grazing". 

And good cheese!

Congrats to Megan on her beautiful new braces-free smile! This group of ladies are as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside. I am so blessed to call them my friends! It was the perfect evening - good friends, food, wine, and conversation. And I didn't have to drive home, because I already was home. A win-win! 

Love you girls so much! Thank you for being in my life.
