The Woodhouse, Caprock Winery Holiday party, and Amy Is Home!!!!!

Back in August, my mom got me a gift certificate to Lubbock's newest spa, The Woodhouse, and I used it last Saturday. One word: heavenly! That place is something else! Very 'big time' for the ole LBK. ;). I didn't take these pictures, I took them off the website but my massage and facial rooms were identical to these minus the rose petals. I got the maternity, Mother-To-Be package ad was there for over 3 hours. Unbelievable! Thanks mom!!!!!!!!






Last Sunday night we took Brian's Staff and a guest to Caprock Winery for a 3 course meal with wine pairing prepared by Chef Curtis and it was lovely! Not to mention delicious!!! His menu is below: yummy!!!!!!!

Candied Apple and Walnut Salad:
Sautéed candied apples, toasted walnuts, cucumber, & cherry tomatoes on a bed of mixed greens with goat cheese and a Moscato truffle oil vinaigrette.
*Paired with CapRock Viognier

Grilled 8oz Filet Mignon:
Wild mushroom cabernet demi-glace, baby bakers, & roasted asparagus
Paired with CapRock 2006 Legacy Cabernet Sauvignon

Double Chocolate Cake
Chocolate cake topped with chocolate port sauce and homemade port whipped cream
Paired with CapRock 2006 Vintage Tawny Port

We had a great time and I'm kicking myself for not taking any pictures. :(. His staff means the world to us and we love them dearly.

And, last but certainly not least:
Amy is HOME!!!!!!! She was released Saturday but couldn't get out of town with Dallas's Icemaggeddon until Sunday, and even then, the road conditions still weren't great, but they made it! It just under 9 hours. What are the chances of Dallas being in a 5 day ice storm when she is FINALLY released from the hospital?!??!? Unbelievable. But they are home and couldn't be happier.


Cheers,
Lindley
