So this post is about 3 weeks late, oops! So lets pretend it is just a few days after Thanksgiving and this post is coming up then rather than now when we are practically opening up Christmas on gifts and frosting Christmas cookies and drinking hot chocolate with homemade peppermint marshmallows.
The day after Thanksgiving, Sean and I took his parents down to Temecula to do some wine tasting. In Temecula, there are two many areas to do wine tasting, the major, crowded wineries with like 5 tasting rooms or the De Portola road that has smaller tasting rooms with more individualized attention. We go there. We tried a new winery Frangipani and then we went to our usual Robert Renzoni. Robert Renzoni not only has great wines, they also make an incredible marinara sauce. I crave that marinara sauce.
It was a beautiful day in Temecula, temps were low 80s, it was just perfect!
Perfect wedding venue all set up already!
Ok now back to Christmas and all the regularly scheduled post for this holiday especially my second annual Christmas cookie week here on henning love, 5 days, 5 different Christmas cookies! And all cookies were given out to different Christmas parties or to my church :-)

That sounds amazing! A wine tasting! I've only been to one, but not as fancy ;)
The ladies in my family and I have made it a tradition to go wine tasting the day after Thanksgiving as well. Love it!
I think this is a much better way to spend Black Friday!
Wow it looks absolutely gorgeous there! I'm jealous of the weather...
Meg,
I love this post!! We were in Temecula around the same time!! We only live about 25 minutes away and go there all the time- our favorite wineries are Ponte, Wiens and Monte de Oro :-) I hope you had a happy Turkey day!!

I *love* Wiens- they have the most amazing reds, in my humble opinion! :)
Beautiful photos! Temecula is such a great place for wine tasting! I've been there a few times and absolutely love it!
Pretty!
I love going to wine tastings! Super cute picture of you two!
Beautiful pictures! I want to visit a vineyard so bad!
Gorgeous photos! I have yet to go to a wine tasting or vineyard tour, but it’s on my bucket list!
So fun! I've always wanted to go wine tasting in Temecula... I've done San Yzez and Napa before, but have never made it down south :) This post makes me want to squeeze it into my next Cali trip though!

Wow what a beautiful place! I think this sounds like a great way to celebrate the holiday weekend!
Gorg my friend.... I tell ya.. GORG!!!
If I knew Temecula had the most perfect-est grapes, I would have visited that town more than I ever did while I was home!
Beautiful! Looks like a perfect way to wrap up Thanksgiving!
Ummm, I'm pretty sure it's a requirement to wine taste the day after Thanksgiving! Way better idea than fighting with dumb people at the malls!
Ooh, I haven’t been to these wineries yet. I love Temecula wine country and since my appreciation for wine has been growing I’ve been meaning to try new places. Looks like you had a great time!
This looks so fun! My husband and I love to go wine tasting, we got married at a winery so there is something special about visiting them! I love that little wedding area, it's perfect!
We have been wanting to try the wine in temecula! but we would need to stay the night down there... i should plan it
Looks like such a nice place and nice weather to enjoy it. :) And you and your husband are a fine looking couple!
I'm not sure which part of the world that is in but it sure is beautiful! Great photos of you and your hubby :)
Thanks for visiting my Vegan Tuesday on my blog!

Nothing wrong with taking an overdue look back at Thanksgiving time. ;)
Oh, I just love visiting wineries. We went to one here a little while ago and had a blast. It was so fun to taste multiple wines in a row and choose our favorites. We can't exactly open 10 bottles of wine at once at home.
Have a great weekend, Meg! :)
We should do this for our next hang out with Jamie and Katie.
Oh wait...Katie won't be able to drink for a few months. Dangit!
What a great time! My husband and I went to Temecula 6 years ago and absolutely loved it!
