Scott and I headed to the mountains of Charlottesville to celebrate our big One Year. We stayed for a long weekend at the Boars Head Inn (boarsheadinn.com). It's similar to the hotel we stayed at on our wedding night with its vintage elegance, luxury, and charm (berkeleyhotel.com). We arrived at the inn mid-afternoon, settled in, and then enjoyed wine tasting with other couples retreating for the weekend. We had dinner reservations in the Old Mill Room at 6:30 so we got fancy and enjoyed a delicious meal by the fire. The rest of the weekend we visited Michie Tavern, enjoyed some other restaurants, explored, and went to see "The Book of Eli"- a great movie! We loved unwinding together all cozied-up in the mountains.
**********
Charlottesville still had some leftover snow from the first big snow fall this year. And speaking of snow, we got hit with 9.5 inches this weekend! Scott has the weekend off so it's been fun getting snowed in together and thankfully we didn't lose any power! Schools are closed for tomorrow, but I'll be busy getting report cards done. Exciting.
Enjoy some photos from our trip:

Michie Tavern - We ate the delish "Midday Fare" and then took a tour.




I pulled our wedding cake out of the freezer to thaw and when I unwrapped it, most of the icing stuck to the foil. After a whole year (plus a couple weeks) it was still yummy! I think I'll add a photo of the cake from our wedding day.


Random shots: I took these photos from our deck on two different mornings. Seriously, how can someone think God doesn't exist, when we're surrounded by so much beauty?

Hey Pea! I had no clue you had a blog... I am excited to follow it! Great photos- I'm really glad ya'll had such a great and romantic time! :)
