I am so happy for you! and I cant help but remember how freaking cute he is!

And Ive lived in Sonoma a few times on and off the last few years. There are plenty of local, awesome places to work at. I would suggest a winery. You could do tastings and meet all the locals.

Glen Ellen is one of my favorite towns ever, its really only about two miles in Sonoma, but the Jack London Lodge is there and some of the best dining ever!

Im jealous!
