Grape Harvest 2018


Grape Harvest in Italy is around September-October.
Last year we missed this kind of event.
This year we made sure were able to go.

It was such an amazing experience!!!


How awesome does these grapes look?
They are ready!


Today's look.
It was a little chilly.
But, it's the time of the year right now where It's cold in the morning.
Then, Hot in the afternoon.






We got to the Winery morning. 
I can't believe this is my 3rd time in this Winery!
Definitely still my favorite.







My favorite wine buddy.
It's always fun with her!


Our first activity was grape picking.
We went to the Vineyard and they let us pick whatever and how much ever grapes we want.





This was such an amazing event with the kids because its not just wine tasting. 
The organizer of the event made it really kid-friendly too.
It was nice!






All the of the grapes.


We went back to the Winery and there was a band.
And of course, the Wine tasting started. :)


This!!!
My favorite drink.
I don't think I ever had it in any wineries.
I only get the liquor mix on this winery.


Few of my favorites. 



There's magician, Face painting at the event.
The kids were having a blast just playing...being kids.





Then, It's Grape stomping time!
It's my first time seeing this!
I didn't try it but my son tried it.
It looked so cool!!


He said it felt so weird.

Maybe next year I'll try it myself.
:)


After that, It's just relaxing time.
Lunch, Wine tasting while the kids are playing.



The lunch was pretty good.
There was chicken, Fries, Polenta, Pumpkin soup and Tiramisu for dessert.
And of course, all the wine!

It was all good.






Before it's time to leave we made sure we got our wine.
I love getting a lot of wine from this winery.
Everything is good. 
I swear!






Such a fun day!



I will definitely do it again next year!!!

Have you went to an event like this??
If you have a chance to come to Italy around this time of the year 
I highly recommend!
It was such an amazing experience.

Happy weekend!!

Ciao Ciao.

Air Force Ball 2018



Remember last year's Ball?


One of the most unforgettable nights we had here in Italy.


I felt like a princess that night.



This year we went again.
Another awesome night.



Me and my love.
We finally made it early and oh my god. 
It was the most beautiful view of the castle.



Red is the color for this year.
It was such a beautiful dress.











The dinner was yummy.
There was such a lot of people this year.



My gorgeous friends!


Such a dream night with my love.

Have you went to a ball?
I think every girl should go at least once.
Definitely a night to remember.

Ciao Ciao!

Lake Garda, Italia.




Hubby decided to finally take  a few days off work to relax.
He has been so busy working so he needed it.

We went on a day trip to Lake Garda!
I have been wanting to go. 
Going there during the week was the best day to go.



Such a beautiful castle. 
The Scaligero Castle.


It was such a peaceful view.







Many interesting things to see on our way to the castle.












Before going to check out the castle we decided to have some lunch first.
It looked like there's a lot of climbing to do, so it was perfect time to fuel up first.






How good does these Gelato looked??





Drinks and Pizza of course!




This was so yummy.
The restaurant was just outside the Castle.
There's a lot of restaurant outside but I'm so glad we picked this one.









After lunch we went ahead and explore the castle.
There was a lot of climbing and my 2 year old did good!







Such an awesome view on the top!!!










My loves.


We walked a little bit more around the Castle.
It was so beautiful there.


The beach.





It was such a relaxing day with my loves.
I highly recommend going there. 

Ciao, Ciao!
