At the Vineyard

My family spent the afternoon at Willamette Valley Vineyards for the Oregon Grape Stomp. It was our third year to go with a group of friends and it is always so much fun! This year, one of my very special friends (you might recognize her from an image or two on my site) and her mommy (another one of my special friends) participated in the Grape Stomp itself. And, alas, although they didn’t win the Napa Valley trip with their total of 2.5 pounds, they both thoroughly enjoyed themselves and created life-long memories.

Mommy has a “famous” Christmas card that she sends out every year, so I’m praying, crossing my fingers *hoping* that one of these will be included on the card. My hubby and I have only made it two or three times in the almost 14 years we’ve known my friend and her husband, so actually taking one of the images that go in it would be quite the coup. :)

And being taped by the Statesman Journal:

    These images are so much fun!
    Love that the documentary feel to this. I almost can imagine the feel of stomping the grapes with my own feet.
    Beautiful captures and gorgeous colors.
