This weekend, Shannon and hubby took off on a jet plane to paradise. Even though I’ll be there in three short weeks, that doesn’t prevent me from being the tiniest bit jealous! Nevertheless, I was determined to make this a weekend that came close to comparing to tropical bliss. Sure, I didn’t make it to the beach or spend a significant amount of time in the sun, but I did fill it with activities that included friends, family, and celebration. Meanwhile, Shannon and TJ indulged in paradise’s little (and big) indulgences, and continue to do so! No matter where you are, make it paradise!

{Aloha, and welcome to Paradise}

{Feet up, drink in hand, sand and ocean in sight…quite alright}

{Some local wine tasting, accompanied by a visit by these beautiful creatures…quite a Sunday Funday!}

{A Saturday night spent at dinner and a High School musical at our local church is a Saturday night well spent, indeed}

{Traditional Friday night wine tasting at the Roberts household. This weekend it was Sangiovese vs. Sangiovese…can you guess which one won!?}
