There are so many wonderful things available to us here in the wine country. I am constantly finding new wines, restaurants and food items worth writing about and I hope that you will enjoy my discoveries.

This blog is not just about weddings, but about what makes this part of the world such a draw; great food, excellent wine and wonderful people. I hope you enjoy reading these posts and can find yourself here, enjoying the same amazing things we do.

Fiesta Time

This past weekend we celebrated Grace's Fourth Birthday ~ hard to believe how quickly time has flown by.  I know everyone says that about weddings and children but it really is the truth!  Being an event planner, I of course had to have a theme which was a classic fiesta.

The weather cooperated (unlike last year) and we hosted the party in our local park.  Jesus from Mi Taqueria provided an absolutely delicious taco bar (quesadillas for the kids), we had plenty of Mexican beer and of course a pinata!  The kids had a blast whacking away at the poor donkey until finally he succumbed to the inevitable and lots of toys spilled onto the ground.  I had given all of the children a small bag to scoop up the toys as quickly as they could...fabulous entertainment and favor!

I know we all can have the tendency to go overboard with our children's parties and I am no exception ~ this weekend reinforced that for kids it doesn't take much....good food, good friends and a pinata to hit with a stick!
