25th birthday at Leona Valley Winery

A few weekends ago, Taylor took me to the Leona Valley Winery for my birthday. It was such a beautiful day; we even had gourmet pizza with our wine, and got to take a bottle of my favorite tasting home! Taylor says that when we’re married i’m dreaming if he thinks we’ll still do stuff like this- so, i thought it’d be a good idea to take pictures to make sure we would be able to remember the times when he still did nice things for me.

p.s. That dog was soooooooo cute! he even had a limp which was realllly sad, but still made him even cuter… i wanted to take him home but taylor wouldn’t let me…

Wedding dress shopping- Pain in the neck, but at least I had good company!

Thought I’d share a picture of me, my mom, and Taylor’s mom while wedding dress shopping. Don’t you guys think Taylor and his mom look alike? (unintended compliment to Taylor) By the way, she’s the one on the right in case you’ve never met my mom and can’t tell who’s who.

Anyway, picking the dress actually turned out to be a really laborious and burdensome experience. Somehow I always manage to make things harder than they have to be. Moms always make things better though, so I’m grateful for both these two!

It’s been nice getting to know the family, and I’m looking forward to the memories to come! I wish I had a picture of the time Taylor invited me to his brother Ryan’s birthday lunch last year. Did you know that Ryan is probably one of the smartest people you’ll meet, but he thought the bones on my short ribs were mushrooms? It was a lunch too, so I am almost 75% sure he was completely sober.
