10 years of thankfulness

Jeff and Dawn on their wedding day October 28, 2000.

Jeff and I celebrated our 10-year wedding anniversary in October. We celebrated this milestone by traveling to Napa Valley. We toured wineries, tasted tons of delicious wine, and had a wonderful time. Here are a few photos:


Jeff and Dawn at Michael Chiarello's Bottega in Napa Valley in October 2010. This is the best restaurant EVER.


A special anniversary dessert.


We had a delicious and elegant anniversary dinner on The Wine Train.


I wish this was my basement.

The wine-making process.


The Robert Mondavi winery is picture-perfect.


Vines and vines of wine.


Before you can make wine, you must grow grapes.

Congratulations. Looks wonderful! I've always wanted to do Napa Valley and haven't. We're definitely thinking of California for our 10-year too though!

I would definitely recommend a trip to Napa as part of your 10-year anniversary celebration! And make a reservation at Michael Chirello's. It is the BEST restaurant, seriously, and the food was not outrageously priced. The wine train dinner was perfect, too. Very romantic, delicious food and the friendliest staff. Pay the extra money for the upper dome where you get a private table for the night and champagne. It's worth it! And tell them it's your anniversary in advance and you'll get a special dessert.
