As I'm browsing our web gallery of pictures I realized I never blogged about our trip to Solvang and Los Olivos that we went on with our parents back in July... oops! It was Andrea and Sandy's idea for us to go wine tasting locally, so we all went (me, Brian, Dad, Sandy, Andrea & Nick) to a local wine country for some picture taking... and some wine tasting, too ;) We even made it out to Neverland Ranch, which was quite a sight! Especially just a couple of weeks after MJ died... There were so many photos, I tried to condense them-- hence all the collages...
first stop - Firestone Vineyard

the wine wasn't very good...



next - Fess Parker


nice, Dad





dad relaxing all cool


the 'rents

into the city to visit the Artiste winery shop







loved this truck-thing outside

there was a book to draw in so I made some random drawing (don't judge-- I'm no artiste!)






off for some more fun

an E for E ;)



someone's ready to go home...

I don't know why, but I just love taking pictures of sconces! I took SO many on this 1 day trip! haha

olive oil tasting... yum!



Neverland Ranch, MJ's old home, was just a few miles up the road. We visited there just a couple weeks after he died, so there were still a ton of fans surrounding it. What a sight...




(note the MJ "impersonator"-- an Asian guy that didn't even speak English)

I look awkward because I didn't know if I should've been smiling or not... it was a sad feeling to be there.

RIP, MJ

Overall, a fun day with the parents!
