Napa Countdown Begins...

In a week, I will be in Napa with my husband and a handful of our closest friends.  My husband and I are both celebrating monumental birthdays this year.  We were sitting around on Superbowl Sunday trying to think of where to have our big bang...and somehow this party grew from being hosted down the street at 'our local elks club' to moving West to a completely different coast.   

Well, what can I say.  You only turn thirty , OK forty, once (and if you're me...you manage to milk it for about 6 months beyond your actual birth date).  And you bet your bottom dollar you'll hear more about this little excursion, but here's a sneak peek into what we have planned...

.... a little barn-like setting

with fresh farm to table ingredients...


a little nostalgia thrown in for friends we have known since grade school through college (and beyond!)


maybe a bit of burlap and twine...



 

 

Of course color, patterns and texture....        






 

Fresh, lively fun...

 



With non-traditional use of fall colors...think eggplants, lime greens, creams (rather than reds, oranges and browns). 



Hopefully plenty of beautiful napa nights, with lots of catching up with old friends and drinking excellent wine and 'making wonderful memories.'

 I'm excited to share details and photos when I return!  (And I hope to post a few more times before we venture off).  But if I don't accomplish that, you'll know where to find me and I'll give a holla back when I return!   xoxo  Heather
