Post Christmas Shopping
On Monday, Bo and I went on a little post Christmas shopping trip with my mom, sisters, and nieces. We stayed at the Rossbridge Resort and Spa in Birmingham, which is absolutely beautiful! It sits on one the of Robert Trent Jones golf courses among rolling hills and a beautiful landscape. Photography by Selma native, Katherine Tucker Windam, was displayed throughout the hotel, as were some very interesting pieces of art. Each room has a balcony overlooking the golf course or pool area. Our room overlooked the pool, and we were able to open the doors and sit out on the balcony and relax. Right after we checked into our rooms, we went out on the balcony to have a quick look around. We all heard music, but thought it was being playing on an audio system. The music kept getting a little louder and a little louder. We caught a glimpse of something walking from a distance, and lo and behold, it was someone walking the grounds playing a bagpipe. It was so neat!
We relaxed for a while at the hotel and then decided to go to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner. Our brother-in-law, Shannon, joined us there. The food was delicious, and the cheesecake was absolutely out of this world. We all made pigs of ourselves. To work off the cheesecake, we shopped! What a way to exercise! It was a lot of fun spending a few days with my mom, sisters, and nieces. I hope we get to have many more trips just like this!
