Happy 2010! You can just feel the excitement in the air...a new day, a new week, a new year...a fresh slate, so to speak. A new year is so refreshing and feels just like starting a new school year as a child...you know, with the perfectly combed hair, pressed outfit, new backpack, shiny new lunch box and freshly sharpened pencils and that feeling of Who will I meet this year?! What all will I learn?! I am so excited for what 2010 holds for myself personally and professionally and I look forward to sharing it all with you on my blog :)























I am finally back from our great Americana road trip number two and I have a few more images to share...
We actually went by Mount Rushmore on the way to North Carolina but I didn't have a chance to blog the last part of our trip after Blizzard 2009 took place!

On our way back we stopped in the Big Easy for New Years Eve and then came through San Antonio...




Along the Riverwalk of San Antonio:



Bear along the Riverwalk...doesn't he look so dapper?! :)

We also took the time to go by a few wineries in Fredericskburg, Texas...our first stop was to Sister Creek Vineyards which was situated in an old cotton gin...very cool!



Next we ventured out to Grape Creek Vineyards:
I am quite the sucker for wine racks!

Beautiful tasting room...


After driving through west Texas we took a few random highways to get to Roswell, NM...last year I really wanted to drive through Roswell and we didn't have time so this year we definitely made a stop by this very interesting town!

Aliens everywhere!



These little guys were everywhere!

Somewhere between Albuquerque, NM and Flagstaff, AZ:

We decided to have a fun day yesterday to ease back into the swing of things so what else did we do than go wine tasting!
We tried out Beckmen for the first time and their Syrah's did not disappoint!!
