Dinner in a Wine Barrel

Ok, after reading the title of this post, you must be thinking that I've surely lost it!

(well, I think I just may have, but that is beside the point!)

 Anyway, over the weekend we had a fun little getaway, and flew out to dinner in hubby's plane.

Mon Ami's is a beautiful historic restaurant and winery near the shores of Lake Erie, in Ohio, just a short flight from us.

We've been there many times, but being seated at one of their wine barrel booths was a first for us.  It was a fun surprise and real treat!  It is actually made out of half of a wine barrel, and makes for cozy and romantic seating.

Dinner was excellent!  Hubby had prime rib, and I had the best angel hair pasta with shrimp, sun dried tomatoes, spinach, feta cheese, and artichoke hearts.  It was a huge serving, enough for lunch the next day!

With all of the crazy stress from having our house on the market, showings and an open house, it was a much needed break.

Forgive the picture quality, they were taken with my cell phone, and lighting wasn't the greatest.

Made of field stone, it looks just magical all lit up at night!

 Mon Ami is French for

"My Friend".

Hubby's plane, our "taxi with wings":) 

The weather has finally warmed up here, and it's been just beautiful this weekend.

It feels like we skipped over spring and now are into summer!

So today we took a picnic lunch out on the boat.

We recently bought a "new to us" pontoon boat from a neighbor who was getting a brand new boat.

Our old one was pretty worse for wear, so hubby sold it.  We love this one, and it looks like Katie approves, as well!

 Thanks so much for stopping by, hope you have a great week!
