Our First Baby-Sitter

Tim and I don’t have the opportunity to get out much without Alex. We always say we want to go on a “date night” when we have family in town to watch Alex, but we usually don’t go out alone since we like hanging out with family when they visit. So, we decided to bite the bullet and call a baby-sitter who was very highly recommended by a friend of mine. Success!! Alex LOVES Miss Christina!

Tim and I went out on a short date Friday night to give Alex time to get used to Miss Christina since we’ll be using her again Saturday for the Lighthouse Beer and Wine Festival (our very belated anniversary celebration). We just hopped over to Carolina Beach to visit a few places we haven’t been before since we always have a toddler in tow. We had a blast!

First stop was the Ocean Grill and Tiki Bar … the tiki bar is on an old pier over the ocean.

Second stop was the Seawitch for delicious mahi tacos and live music under the stars.

Third stop was Tim’s favorite – they have a walk-in cooler (which is actually a refrigerated 18 wheeler) filled with an amazing amount of beers!

The Fat Pelican, or beer paradise, has a fun, eclectic feel to it! We’ll definitely have to come here again – we only had about half an hour before heading home for our curfew.
