You Had Me at Merlot

This past weekend the mister and I, along with two other couples, went on our annual winery trip to the Finger Lakes in New York.  We've made the trip four years in a row, but ever since 2008 it holds another special meaning for us because we became engaged there.

Enduring thirty wineries in two days is exhausting, and I feel like I gain 20 pounds by Sunday night, but we love it! Slowly I'm growing from an Arbor Mist kind of gal into a newbie wine enthusiast.

The theme is always "Cruisin' the Tropics" -  hence the hair flowers and leis. :) Unfortunately the weather at Seneca Lake this time of year is far from tropical.










Belhurst Castle (the place where the big proposal happened!)




Wes found his favorite wine - "69 Ways to Have Fun"

  1. This is such a fun tradition!!

    PS - last night while watching the Daily Show I decided that Wes kind of reminds me of Jason Jones:

  2. Ha, D, I kind of see it. He also gets a Mr. Bean comparison. And Steve Carrell.
