My Birthday

David and I were able to take an afternoon to tour wine country on the wine train--in napa, CA. My mom came out fot my birthday and watched the girls for us:)


What scenery... just perfect!


This house on the hill used to belong to Walt Disney himself. He sold it and it was then used as a Bed and breakfast--"The Castle in the Clouds"

Opus 1 winery---$200/bottle. For the uppety crowd....

The inside of the train was beutiful---just like the old times (as I imagine it of course!)

The food was yummy as well as the wine. I even received a birthday truffle--

...I ate it before I thought about a picture:)

The ride was peaceful and just nice---the views were great!


When we got home, the girls and Grandma were making the birthday cake:)

They were very proud of the fact that they learned how to put the coconut on the sides of the cake!!!


Of course, they helped me blow out the candles---David was kind enough to buy the numbers this year:)


White almond cake with coconut--it was yummy!!!!



Overall, it was a great birthday!!!
