New digs

we moved!

an hour north

to the country

 

 

 

we are about 15 miles outside of town

our back yard

no grass
 lots of stickers and weeds
and rocks
welcome to the hill country
 

it's cozy

this new place

 

 

 

adam installed a new fan in the living room

my big strong man!

  

i'm enjoying having the laundry outside

that's a first for me

 

we filled up this garage far too quickly
 

we are excited for 

a new chapter

living in the country is fun

I bet we spend lots more time grilling
eating meals outside at our picnic table
while we pick stickers out of our feet
and watch the deer wander around

there is always a bright side
 i'll focus on that
and look so forward to what this year holds
 

good bye covent drive
thanks for the memories
 

girl's day away {fredericksburg, tx}

ericka and i went to the hill country wine country. 

Texas wine country :-)

about 30 minutes outside of town

scenic back country roads

that lead to neat shops

 and scenes like this

we started at this quaint little stop in the middle of no-where

Sister Creek Winery

award winning wines

perfect location

friendly people

cheap to try it out

and goooood wine

our favorite was the Pinot Noir

red wine

then onto a big fancy vineyard/winery

Becker

cool atmosphere
i want to take adam back for sure

and our last stop was a wine tasting store
for Messina Hof wines
with these pretty yellow flowers outside

a tv to keep an eye on the score
texas/tech game

cozy spot to sit and charge my phone
and rehydrate with lots of water
no more wine
8 different samples is plenty for one day

and we met up with some of ericka's high school friends 

ericka, ginger, stacy, jennifer

fun girls

our wine touring ended with this beautiful sunset

then a fabulous dinner

at the Navajo Grill

i really enjoyed our day touring texas "wine country"!
