winter getaway

last weekend mom and dad snow came to visit us and we had a great time taking them to sonoma, santa rosa, monterey, and carmel. things didn't go exactly as hoped for with the weather (quite rainy for california standards) and 17 mile drive was closed (due to the pro-am golf tournament), but we had a great time enjoying the long weekend together. we even got dad to go to ikea! here are some pictures from their visit.



what exactly is a "door to nowhere" doing in a vineyard?
our tour guide. we were the only 4 on the tour which was pretty great. i guess the rain scares most people away.

they gave us blankets to keep us warm, which made us pretty happy.
in the wine cave

after wine tasting we headed to santa rosa to stop by the charles schulz museum and to eat dinner at chevy's. these pictures are for you aunt diane :)


on saturday we headed to monterey/carmel to enjoy another day of the rain/sun mixture.
see hannah, you were with mom and dad on this trip :)



enjoying valentine's day where we went for our honeymoon :)
