A Grand Getaway

A big thank you goes out to Aunt Caroline for inviting us to Point Clear to celebrate Uncle Tommy's birthday.  The hubby and I decided to leave little man at home with the Grandparents and have a nice little getaway.




Such a beautiful place with immaculate landscaping...



Nall is one of my all time favorite artists. 
His work can be seen all over the hotel...



After checking in, we grabbed a cocktail by the pool and toured the grounds. 
Absolutely beautiful!


Our dinner date at Master Joe's in Fairhope was amazing.
We ate way too much sushi and it was way too yummy...



I found a cozy swing with this view
and slowly sipped my latte Saturday morning...


so peaceful...



The guys after golf at a fun little lunch spot, Tamara's Steamer...



After lunch, our sweet tooth took over and a visit to Punta Clara Kitchen had the fix.
It is a wonderful family owned and operated business with specialty candies made right in this historic home, built in 1897...



The hubs and I cheered on The Tide (Tommy and Caroline were great sports!)
then we all headed to Bucky's Birdcage Lounge at the hotel
to finish out the night with a cocktail...


(camera phone pics in a dark bar, need I say more...)


Again, THANK YOU Caroline for such a wonderful weekend!  We love you guys!
