Wonderful Wine Weekend

We all left home on June 25th to start the great summer road trip of 2010 and since then we have sadly been without internet connection (we would not be surviving without our 3G on our Iphones) But thank the lord we have hacked into the park connection and we are back up to blog... We have a little catching up to do.

We left bright and early on June 25th, 5:00 am to be exact. Anyone that knows my fathers vacation schedules would not at all be surprized. We drove 4 hours with Bennett strapped in back watching Shrek & his signing time movies. We arrived at Orondo River Park around noon to drop off the 2 trailers and the boat where they will stay until our return on Sunday. We left and started another leg to Richland in the afternoon and arrived at the 2 Annual Tincher Wine Tasting Weekend! Last year we couldn't go because Bennett was sick and we were thrilled to make it this year.
The weekend was a beautiful one full of wine, family and many babies... that is right we had 5 babies and Bennett was the oldest (not that he qualifies as a baby but since it was his first time there he made the cut). Bennett loved hanging with his cousin Lily the most. She flew in from Hawaii to surprize her Grandma and Grandpa and to Bennetts extreme delight... she loves to play chase!

Bennett has been using his sign language like crazy and loved showing off how he can say his first signed sentance "more cracker please" He does it really fast and if we dont hand over whatever we have he quickly gets frustrated and starts using all sorts of "please" and "more" while yelling... still pretty cute.

Tasting at the first of many Richland Wineries... Loved it!
The newest of the babies... Miss Violet Scott... What a sweetie and I was so happy to get a snuggle :)
