Mom and Daughter Weekend

Fall is in the air! My mom flew up on Friday to spend the weekend with me here in the Napa Valley. It was so nice to have a break from work and enjoy some much needed time together!

The forcast for the weekend was rain rain rain but there was a glimmer of hope for Monday! Friday I was able to get off work early, so that I could clean the house before my mom arrived. She got here about 3:30 on friday afternoon and we were able to sit and talk and catch up on eachothers lives. We decided that it would be a good night to have some BBQ even though it was raining outside. Zac BBQed steak and salmon! Yum!

The next morning we woke up to more rain. We decided that it would be a good day to do some shopping! My house was in need of some new decore after Hudson had chewed up my slipcovers. Zac my mom and I hoped in the barracuda and off to Santa Rosa we went. We found ourselves going to three different fabric stores before we found what we wanted. Then it was off to grab some lunch and head back home.

By the time we got home it was already late into the afternoon. We decided to just relax, watch a movie and order some pizza!

 Suprise, suprise the next morning we woke up to more rain. We chose to stay in all day with the heater and the fireplace! Zac was able to work on the barracuda. He put the front sway bar in which we are both excited about. It doesn't feel like your driving a boat anymore. My mom worked so hard all day sewing a new slip cover for my living room chair! It looks awesome. Thank you so much momma you are amazing. After working hard all day Zac and I wanted to treat my mom to a delicious dinner so we headed off to Solbar.

The food was delicious! We had so much funenjoying eachothers company and the awesome atmosphere.When we got back to the house we got into our comfy clothes, put on a fire and watched young frankenstein. A perfect way to end the night.

Monday monring, sunshine! My mom and I were so excited to wake up and see the sun in the sky! We decided that today would be a great day to head into St. Helena and walk around. We got up, got ready and headed into town around 10:30. It was so nice to be able to walk around in the sun! We first stopped at Woodhouse to pick up some chocolate for my dad. It is always so fun to look at their window display and see everything made out of chocolate.
 We walked around some more and my mom wanted to go to her favorite store of course! She loves Vintage Home. I was able to go in Footcandy and look at all the gorgous shoes! I found the cutest pair of rain boots that I wanted to buy but I just might wait till Christmas :) With all this rain we have been having I think I need some dress rain boots. So by now we are getting hungry so we found a a cute little place in town called AKA bistro. The food was so good ( you can't really go wrong in Napa Valley). After we stuffed ourselves it was time to head back to Calistoga.
My mom had to pack up and head home once we got back :( It was sad to see her go but we had so much fun this weekend! It was so much fun being able to hang out with my momma, I love her so much!! Can't wait til next time. Check out more pictures from our weekend at: www.kimberlyzachery.shutterfly.com
