Mothers Day

Everyday should be Mothers Day right?  I had a very special mothers day this year, for the second mothers day my wonderful amazing Grammy came up from Sacramento CA! Even though it was a short trip having her here is like..well I don't know how to describe it, incredible, marvelous and wonderful are all words I want to use at the same time lol! It makes me feel like a little girl again, carefree and full of energy, she brings a sort of peace & balance to everyone around her. My Grammy & I may not be blood related but I hope for myself to grow up and be just like her in every way, shape, & form!

This Mothers Day my wonderful hot mommy (Mikes words not mine ;) planned an entire day riding in a limo going wine tasting around Monroe! Yes I know my sister & I are god awful spoiled by my mom, we remind ourselves everyday that she gave us this life with everything in it & there is nothing that we could ever do to show her how much we love her! Both my sister & I get our spunk, traveling addiction and ambition from her! WE LOVE YOU MOMMY!

My wonderful Family starting our wine tour!
So this was my Grammy & Mikes 1st ride in a limo, so being the Mackey/Krygier girls we had to make it awesome! It started out with a beautiful scenic, sunny country drive..Oh & mimosas dah!

Grammy & Mom!

Tush & I

It wouldn't be a complete day without mike & tush being weird!
About 45mins away to our 1st stop was... Domaine Meriwether Winery an absolutely beautiful place with the most friendly "wine tasting associate" she had a dress & cardigan set I covet! Definitely going back there!

1st wine stop!
Our 2nd destination was Benton Lane Winery this one one also very cute and its where we enjoyed our lunch out side on the patio with breath taking views! The limo company we went through provided us with luch and appitizers yum yum!

yum yum eat um up!

catching people chewing!

The 3rd place was Pfeiffer Vineyards this was a fun place but I have to say while the owner was friendly & sweet, I did not enjoy the atmosphere as much and the tasting was $20 per person(not that great). This could be do to the fact that it was beautiful & sunny in Oregon, yeah i know shocker..and this winery designed there interior to look dark like a wine cellar, so I kinda wanted to be outside in the sun! Mike did buy all the moms Stella & Dot jewelry since there was a girl selling there and it was beautiful! It was my least favorite out of the 3.

At the 3rd winery outside!


After wine tasting we were all feeling pretty good we sat outside and talked about our adventure like true winos while Mike made all the ladies some feta and spinach stuffed chicken, brussel sprouts with homemade kalamata olive bread!
