Two Years

On 8/6 we celebrated our two year anniversary. Patrick planned the whole thing and surprised me with a trip to Napa Valley. He didn't tell me where we were going until we pulled onto the highway for Napa Valley/Sonoma. He then told me that we were going to be spending the night in Calistoga. We checked into our hotel and then went and drove around. The vineyards were so beautiful! I loved it! We went out to a nice dinner in St. Helena where Patrick said he had the best pizza in his entire life - that is quite a compliment coming from him! Patrick then told me that early the next morning we would be going for a ride in a hot air balloon! I was so excited!!

We had to meet at 5:30 am to go up in the hot air balloon, so it was an early morning, but worth it. We met at a restaurant then they drove us to the launch site. There were a total of 3 balloons and each one held 10-12 people. We had so much fun. You just feel like you are floating. The pilot actually took us down to this little stream and barely touched the basket in the water and took us up again.

They took us back to the restaurant and served us bruch. After that we went to the Napa Valley farmers market where we got to taste the best fruit. It is all organic and yummy!! It was amazing and truly a memorable anniversary. I have the best husband in the world!! =)
