Good Wine & Live Music - Who Could Ask For More?


Today we went to a local winery for some wine tasting and live music. It was such a relaxing night. We went with Wendy, Eric and the boys, Aidan and Alexei. The winery was such a beautiful location and the weather was perfect! We had our blankets spread out a nice distance from the band and next to the beautiful lake, which did have a sign warning guest of a "very large snapping turtle" - a little scary...




We brought tons of food; cheese, bread, crackers, spread, fruit, olives and much more. Colin had a wonderful time exploring everyones' plates. The wine was good as well. One was called the "Long Bomb", which was named after a football play. It was a tribute to a man who had passed away last year that had been a quarterback for a local college. The label was cute it had a drawing of the football play, I wanted to buy it for that reason alone! The wine was a dry, red wine...very strong.



The music - was nice. Not my favorite but definitely entertaining. The band, The Shane Gamble band has a myspace page...haha, throwing in a little plug for the guy! Wendy and I did enjoy critiquing his regular speaking voice...maybe that was due to the wine.



Colin got to hang out with the big boys while they tried to catch fireflies. He tried to lead them to a good place to hunt!


Colin got to stay up very late tonight, so hopefully he sleeps in tomorrow because mommy is a lighter sleeper than daddy...
