Last weekend my mom, dad, Hope and I headed to Napa. This was my first time in this gorgeous city since turning 21, so it was fun to do a little tiny bit of tasting with my parents! It was the most beautiful day; sunny and 85 degrees! {I definitely wore the wrong outfit for the heat!} I honestly think I could have stayed there forever and ever, just staring out onto the rolling hills, vineyards, lush greenery, symmetrically placed rows of grapes, old barns, and perfectly pink sunset.
There's no denying God's glory when you happen upon a place this stunning. As a designer, beauty found in nature inspires me to create beauty this pure in a home. What inspires you? I hope you enjoy some pictures from our day!
That last picture there was truly a stroke of luck. Would you believe me if I told you I was in a moving car when I took it?! It's true, I promise. I'm still shocked at how clear it came out with the pink sun peeking through the trees, all while my mom driving along. Old buildings covered in ivy gets me every.single.time. I guess the moral of this story is to keep snapping away with your camera-- you just never know when you're going to catch a keeper!
Have you ever been to Napa? I'll be sharing outfit details with you tomorrow, so come on back.
Happy Tuesday!

ReplyDeleteOh wow, beautiful pictures! What a wonderful time to visit. (:
ReplyDeleteI adore Napa! I've only been there twice (most recently in June!), but it's one of my most favorite places ever. Which wineries did you wander into? I think my all-time favorites for beauty may be Andretti or Hess Collection. Or maybe Mumm... I can't wait to go back.

Michaela, these are gorgeous photos! When I was 15, I spent a month in Napa with my parents and sister due to a business assignment of my dad's. It was such a beautiful place! Sadly, it was cold and rainy the entire time we were there. Not the "sunny California" the mid-westerners were expecting. :) I would love to go back some day!
