So for my thirtieth birthday, my fabulous, generous and most loving husband surprised me with a fun trip to Napa Valley, California for some weekend wine-tasting! Yes, we brought Harry too and we had such a wonderful time! Here is proof that you can still get out and do all of those things that you did pre-baby....just this time you have to pack everything in your house to go along with you. Trust me, for the wine and chocolate..... it was worth it!!

Some of our favorite vineyards that we visited while we were there were; The Hess, Raymond, Rutherfurd and Rombauer. I seriously cannot wait to go back there. A lovely lady at Raymond gave us lots of 2-for-1 tasting coupons to use at the various vineyards which we really appreciated and certainly put to good use! The chocolate pairing at Rutherford was out-of-this-world. A very memorable evening sitting in the sun followed by a walk through the vineyards tasting grapes with Harry to thank him for his patience and good behaviour!
