our anniversary weekend

 {ex nihilo vineyard}

we spent the long weekend

in a perfect paradise

of wooden cabins

surrounded by lush hills full of green trees.

 {in front of the cabin}

we ventured out

to taste a plethora of okanagan wines

ranging from the most delicate pinot blanc

to the amazingly rich and smooth night by ex nihilo

and the gamay noir from grey monk,
gorgeously deep and delicious.

 {enjoying the wine}

we played board games

enjoyed a celebratory bottle of veuve cliquot

relaxed on cozy couches

participated in the silly games

to celebrate our civic holiday

and lounged in a giant hot tub.

{doing a little relaxing}

 

it was a perfect weekend

to celebrate our wonderful first year of marriage

and look out over the next one

with hopeful breathlessness.

 {a summer patio}

this weekend was a delightful taste

of wonderful things to come.
