A Lovely Lunch

July 14, 2007 by Lauren 3 Comments

Brad’s parents invited us to go to a local vineyard (James Arthur) for a wine tasting.  It was fantastic!  We each got to sample six different wines, and Mrs. Royuk ordered some yummy baskets of breads, cheeses and meats.  We ate outside under the coolest gazebo I’ve ever seen in my life (which has sparked some serious gazebo planning, but that’s another story).   They have it all landscaped beautifully, so when my aforementioned gazebo is built, we’ve got to get Brad right on makin’ it great.

Living like roy-uk-alty.  (Wait a minute, you'll get it.)

As wonderful as the wine was, my favorite part was the gentle, gigantic cat that wandered around.  He was HUGE!!!!!  Paws as big as your leg, and absolutely no neck – his skull went straight down to his shoulders.  I need a giant cat.

I love you, kitty!!

    The wine was indeed delicious. And the cat was really cool. As long as it didn’t have ringworm. (Do you feel itchy?)

    I don’t itch at all. I poured wine on my hands after I petted him.

    The wine was so good that we gave some to Tim for his baptism. That’s a good baptism gift, right?
