This weekend we went to Fredericksburg to tour some local Texas wineries and celebrate the baptism of our niece, Rebecca. We arrived on Friday night and on Saturday went to 3 different wineries, Spicewood, Flat Creek and William Chris. We were very impressed with how good the local wines were. Sunday was the baptism at Resurrection Lutheran Church, where Jeff's mom is a member and also where Carrie and Chris got married. Rebecca did great and didn't cry at all during the ceremony! I have the honor of being her Godmother, while Chris's brother, Jeff is the Godfather. (Kinda crazy that Carrie and Chris both have brother's named Jeff! And Chris's mom is named, Laurie! They were meant to be together!) Anyway, after the baptism we had a great lunch at the house.
Monday, we went to even more wineries. This time we went to Texas Hills, Pedernales Cellars, Woodrose, and Becker. Whew! That's a lot of wine drinking! We had a great time and found something we liked at each winery, but Becker was our favorite. We pretty much liked EVERYTHING they had! Now our wine fridge is fully stocked.
We came home today and will have just enough time to reset and repack because Thursday we leave to head out east to Louisiana. We are spending the weekend in Covington for my mom's birthday celebration. Should be fun! I'll leave you with some of the highlights of the trip from this weekend.
