We began with our favorite local hike. We hiked to the top of Bald Hill. It was a popular spot since it was a February day without any rain. My arms length photo skills have gone down hill, but still you get the idea. The view was beautiful and it felt good to breathe. We enjoyed it so much we decided to continue with another one of our favorite things.
Wine tasting! Lumos, a vineyard we discovered over Thanksgiving weekend had a special Valentines Day tasting at their cabin in the woods. It was adorable and the wine was delicious. We even bumped into a friend there, which was nice to see. I love wine tasting, period, but I really love it when you have a stunning location in which to do it. The tasting came with a long stem rose for the ladies in attendance. Not sure how I got one!
Yes, that's mine in a water bottle I had from the gym in the car. Super romantic!
Armed with two successful treks, we threw caution to the wind and went crazy.
No, your eyes are not playing tricks on you. This is a monkey birthday cupcake. Yes, on our first outing since the death of our own fur son, we trekked to a child's birthday party, at a pizza joint. Cause we love kids and we love pizza palaces. Ok, not really. But we do love Erin, Luis and Mateo so it was a no brainer that we would attend Sir Mateo's first birthday party. Plus, the cupcake was such a bonus because Erin is not only an amazing baker, but she is the most creative cake decorator I know. This cupcake tasted as delicious as it is cute. Seriously. All that talent and a cute kid too. Jeez, some people get all the luck.
After that we were pretty worn out. There is only so much fun the Ross' can have at this stage of the game. Really we should pace ourselves.
Does the pain still take our breath away? Yes, it does. But with each new day we are learning to breathe again too.
