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!

Cousins Weekend, a.k.a "hapamon 2010"

The hubs comes up with some great ideas (every now and then :) About this time last year he decided it was time for us to start planning a 2010 "cousins" trip. We wanted a way to get all the kiddos together every year.

It all came together at Lake Martin the weekend of July 23rd. Thanks to Tommy Hassell's name suggestion, we are calling it the "hapamon" trip (Hassell, Pappas, Simon all rolled into one).

We had the best time seeing everyone! We had great food, good drinks, and lots of swimming to beat the heat. Best of all...Isabella, Michael and Lucy had a blast playing together.

Yay for Izzy (again)!

Here are more pics from Izzy's visit. We had fun swimming in the pool...

We also had fun chasing and squealing and laughing....

Yay for Izzy!

Michael and Izzy were so excited to see each other yesterday! They had so much fun chasing each other around the house, sqealing and shouting the whole way.

They also had fun with Pop Pop's guitars and Ya Ya's piano...
