B-I-N-G-O! Nov.20th 2010

BINGO NIGHT! If you live in Calistoga you look forward to one thing every year, Bingo! Every year the Calistoga Fire Fighter Association puts on its Bingo night, this year marked the 72nd year. I think there were a little over 400 people who showed up this year. First they have the actaul bingo games where you can win $100 per game, then they have the black out bing where you can win $500! They also have raffle tickets where you can win things like a gift card to a resturant or to get a massage. And finally they have a silent auction that is mostly wine but they do have some packages for trips to the snow and other fun things! Enjoy some of the pictures from the night!

Good Guys Car Show Nov. 14th 2010

Yet another car show! It was going to be a beautiful day so what better way to enjoy it then walking around and looking at some hot cars? Zac and I had our friends Ricky and Autumn over the night before to enjoy some of our home made pizza, we got to talking and decided we would all head down the the Good Guys car show.

We were up early on Sunday to meet everyone over in Santa Rosa. After everyone got there we decided it would be smarter if we would all carpool, so we hopped in Rickys dads van and off we went!

When we arrived it was already starting to warm up! The boys wanted to hit up the swap meet first to see if they could find anything they couldn't live without. Zac was keeping his eye out for some mustang disc brakes to fit on our Barracuda no such luck. Nick was able to score a free bike! He was walking by and found a bike that said free and he took it. He was popping wheeling with it ( even though it had flat tires).

After making our way through the swap meet it was finally time to check out the cars! It was a pretty big meet and Im not sure if we were able to see everything but it was really fun to walk around.

As usual I kept my eye out to find a 64' Barracuda but yet again there were none there. I can't wait to get my car all cherried out so that I can take it to a car show and be the first 64' barracuda there!

After doing a lot of walking we were all pretty hungry! Ricky had been talking about going to Fudruckers all day so we were ready to eat! We were able to sit down and relax and enjoy our delcious burgers. So fun being able to hang out with friends, unitl next year Good Guys :)

Sister Weekend

 

November 3rd was my beautiful sisters Birthday! We were unable to be together for her big day but she was able to come up for the weekend and celebrate up here in the Napa Valley. Jen flew up north and was able to hang out with her best friend Tracie on friday. Once they were done spending some time together she drove over to the Calistoga to spend some time with me!

Saturday morning was gorgeous here in the Napa Valley, so we decided to hop on the crusisers and do some wine tasting. Our first stop was Sterling Winery. Sterling is always fun to go to because you get to take the mini tram up the hill to the winery. We were able to sit outside for a bit and enjoy the beauitful weather and the awesome view!

After we finished up at Sterling we decided to hit up one more winery. We got on the bikes and peddled down the street to Clos Pegaus Winery. We had both never been there. We had our wine tasting and then road into town to grab some food really quick. We were in a bit of a rush because we had Ultimate pedicures at Coldwater Creek the Spa. We had had these pedicures the day before my wedding and discovered that they are the best pedicures that you could ever have so we did NOT want to miss out. We road home quickly, jumped in the car, ate our sandwhiches and off to Santa Rosa we went!

After our awesome pedi's we decided to head home and relax even more! We picked out at movie and ordered some of out favorite pizza from La Prima! What a nice end to a great day!

Sunday the rain came! We thought it would be a good day to head into St. Helena and walk around. After walking around for a bit and doing some window shopping we decided to grab some lunch at the one and only Guignis!

Jen was able to pick up some gifts for mom and dad while we were in St.Helena. Of course dad got the Woodhouse chocolate and she got mom a really cute candle holder! After our little shopping trip it was time to head back home and get ready for our night out! Before we went home we made a pit stop at some beautiful vineyards for some sister model pictures!

 

Once we were done with our pictures we headed home to get ready! I had taken my mom out to Solbar a couple weekends before and she had loved it. She thought that my sister would love going there as well so I set up some reservations for my sister and I. We wanted to get in some more time together in the Napa Valley before she headed home the next day! The food was delcious!

We soaked in the atmoshpere as we enjoyed our cocktails and appetizers. Jen ordered Tuna and I had soup and salad and it was delicious! We also decided to get some dessert, deep fried apple pie! What a perfect way to end such an amazing weekend. We are already excited about planning our next weekend together. Be sure to enjoy more of our pictures at: Kimberlyzachery.shutterfly.com.
