We knew we wanted to do something special to celebrate our 10th anniversary. Our budget is tight, and our plan was simple - getaway for a night somewhere close by that feels like it's far away! (To accomplish this little getaway, E spent the night with my parents for the first time...incidentally, she did great, slept the whole night and asked Gramma if she could stay at her house all week. I don't think she had a problem sleeping away from home!!!)
Hubby and I booked a night in this wonderful bed and breakfast. We used to do B&B weekends all the time, pre-E....staying in charming little towns, touring the old downtown areas and exploring all the local haunts. This little getaway brought back memories of all of those little trips.
I loved having quiet meals with my sweet hubby... where I did not have to pour milk, cut food or reprimand. And it was just such a nice, quiet, simple getaway. The package we booked included a wine tasting tour...something we adore. We had such a great time and met a neat young couple from Louisiana celebrating their first wedding anniversary. We were at such different places in our lives, but had such fun with them.
Can you get over the gorgeousness of this house and the grounds? I would love to have something this lovely someday! I adore old houses with all of their character. The porch and porch swing at this home made me swoon - so lovely! And the gardens were nothing short of amazing. Tons of little nooks and crannies with benches, seats, water features, statues and more!
And the wine tasting! Divine! We really liked this tasting room, enjoyed a wonderful dinner at this place, and were amazed at the beauty of this spot.
Even thought we're back to reality, school schedules, work stresses and home chores, I will always treasure the memory of this sweet little perfect getaway with hubby. I cannot think of a better way to celebrate 10 years of marriage with my man!
