Happy holiday season, PNW friends! If you’re familiar at all with Leavenworth in central Washington, you know that it’s a Bavarian village that turns into a full blown Christmas town during the holidays. It’s nothing short of magical. Just outside of town, there’s the Leavenworth 

Dry Falls

Dry Falls

At the end of April my husband and I had a weekend getaway in Walla Walla, WA. (Our first weekend away from the baby!) It was nothing short of amazing and full of great food and great wine. I’m already planning a girl’s weekend so
