Anniversary and 40th Birthday Celebration in Sonoma with The Wine Road

August 29, 2013 by Laura Lohr 10 Comments

The Wine Road Gift Bag

Back in June, not only did I turn 40, but Mr. Bear and I celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary. We were trying to choose the perfect spot to vacation, so I turned to Facebook. Sonoma was the hand-down winner for the perfect vacation. The more feedback I got from friends and family, the more I was convinced! A fellow blogger recommended The Wine Road. I contacted them and they offered some complimentary services for our anniversary, including a 3-day ticket to the Wine Road.

We went out LAX, as we had to drop the kiddo, the dogs and the cat off at my parent’s house and it was closer than San Diego. We took a one hour-ish hop from LAX to Santa Rosa. It was so easy! Much better than flying into San Francisco! We flew Alaska Airlines, which allowed for us to bring back a case of wine with us on the return, so BONUS! Please, they were giving complimentary cocktails on the flight. Wooohoo!

Bloody Mary
We stayed at the Hilton Sonoma Wine Country Hotel, where the service was amazing from the moment we called for a complimentary shuttle from the airport. They did not have a scheduled airport pick-up for another hour after we landed, but came and got us anyway. When we arrived at the hotel, The Wine Road had this amazing package all ready to go for us, complete with maps, a cookbook, a lovely bottle of wine, coupons from various Wine Road participants and we immediately opened the bottle of wine.

Beautiful sunset on my 9 mile run. I still get anx Beautiful sunset on my 9 mile run. I still get anxiety before these long runs and I have extreme doubts can complete them each time before I go out. It seems crazy when I've run thousands of miles, nonetheless, I doubt my abilities. I do it anyways. I always feel strong and accomplished after I finish.

This girl's school principal is the real mascot of This girl's school principal is the real mascot of the school. The kids love him! When they released this Mr. Williams t-shirt, she's been asking for one. She's so excited about it. 😂 😂 She was asked to be an editor for the yearbook next year. She spent most of her free time after school swimming, playing water polo, and meeting today's deadline for the school yearbook. I am so inspired by this kid! 💜💜

Me and my baby girl. My baby is now taller than me Me and my baby girl. My baby is now taller than me. She's smarter than me too. I'm so proud of her! She's grown into this amazing creature. We took a walk along the beach and the three of us dressed for the different occasions. I was prepared in my @spandits, she was in her cute new skirt, and hubby was wearing a surf shirt and shorts. Lots of fun! 💜

There's been lots of relaxing, lots of hard work, lots of connecting with my people, and lots of of living life in the outdoors, near the ocean. It's been a blessing and I'm filled with gratitude.
