four years

Leith and I celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary in August. We both can't believe how fast the past 4 years have gone by. This last year has been the most eventful of all I must say. We had originally planned on going on a Mexican cruise but with the recent house purchase and Leith's new job we decided to do something a little more low key. So after doing some research we chose to spend a weekend in Temecula at the Churon Winery. It took us a little over an hour to get there and since our room wasn't ready for check in we decided to start the wine tasting. The receptionist at our hotel suggested we try a small family owned winery at the far end of the road so we took her advice and headed over there. The name of the winery was Doffo...named after the Doffo family that owns it. The owner was born and raised in Argentina. He moved from orange county to temecula with plans to retire and started a small vineyard as a hobby. Before he knew it word spread of his delicious wine and now they have a large vineyard with tasting room  in the back of their home. We had such a great time talking with the owners son that we decided to join their wine club! After Doffo we headed to the famous South Coast winery and did another tasting. By that time we were both hungry and tired so we got some lunch and headed to our room to rest before dinner. Dinner was in Old Town Temecula. We were served a delicious five course meal...my last course was a creme brule that was AMAZING! We had planned on staying to do some dancing but were so stuffed from dinner we went back to the hotel and went to bed. After 4 years we like to live it up! haha...not really. The next day we enjoyed some breakfast and headed back home. It was such a great weekend to be alone together and we were so blessed that my parents stayed with Isaiah. Here's to the next 50 years!!!!
