Romantic Staycation in Huntsville

Huntsville is full of wonderful ways to savor the time with the one you love on a fabulous date night.  You can enjoy the beauty parks, museums, gardens, restaurants, plays...the list goes on.  We decided to let the romance fly at the Four Points Sheraton at the Huntsville Airport.  They had an amazing Valentine's Day package that my husband and I couldn't pass up.  The "Romance, Drink & Dine with your Valentine" offered a early check in/late check out, 4 course dinner, breakfast in bed & a room with special treats and surprises.

I have severe airborne allergies so I gave the hotel a call to make sure they could accommodate me before I reserved a room. The Director of Food and Beverages, Anthony Walls, assured me that I would be in great hands and although I wouldn't be able to dine in The Grill restaurant, I would have an amazing dining experience in my room. He was correct! Guest services reserved my room, a King Deluxe, and I was excited to see what Four Points had to offer.


We arrived at the hotel at about 4pm and received our keys to room 610. I was nervous about staying
at a hotel connected to the airport and when I opened the room door our view was of the runway with an airplane in sight. Was this going to be a big mistake? I didn't have much time to dedicate to this
concern because the room was so full of Valentine's Day love and romance. There was rose petals and  candy on the bed, a beautiful card from the Sales Manager- Peggy, a basket with champagne, flutes, candy, Bath and Body Works Shower gel ... they even placed a cute candy basket in the bathroom. The room it self was pleasant with a king size bed, desk, chair to relax and in room safe. The ambieance was great, my only complaint was the size of the bathroom. For a plus size diva like myself, getting in and out the bathroom with the large sink was a bit of a problem. 

The Grill offered a choice of 6:30 or 8:00pm dinner times and we chose the later.  Our dinner was great and we enjoyed it while watching the Allstar Weekend Skills contests on the 32 inch tv in the room. The night went smoothly with us forgetting we had a runway outside because we didn't hear a peep!  There were a few hiccups in the morning with breakfast arriving late but I would wait even longer for that amazing frittata... I wish I had reserved my room earlier because I really wanted to get a suite but I still enjoyed my time at the Four Points Sheraton at Huntsville airport. The package was more than I expected, the food was very good and free Dasani water is always a plus. I would definitely stay again and recommend you visit as well.

Do you visit hotels locally? Would a package like this encourage you to try a "staycation"?

Embracing a New Chapter: Adventures of a New Grandmother at 50!

  As the winds of change blow through my life, I find myself standing at the threshold of a thrilling new chapter: grandmotherhood! Yes, you read that right—I recently celebrated my 50th birthday, and to add an extra sprinkle of joy, my youngest son and his partner are expecting their first child. Cue the confetti and baby giggles! It's been over two decades since I last cradled a newborn in my arms, and the prospect of becoming a grandmother fills me with an indescribable mix of excitement, nostalgia, and a touch of apprehension. While I'm overjoyed at the prospect of cuddling a little bundle of joy again, there's no denying that navigating this new role comes with its own set of challenges and adventures. Balancing the excitement of impending grandmotherhood with the reality of supporting my adult children through this life-changing journey is a delicate dance. From offering sage advice and sharing in their joy to resisting the urge to overwhelm them with too much "h...

Embracing Grace: A Journey to Natural Gray Hair

  As the wind blows, so too does the passage of time, marking the transitions in our lives. One such transition that many individuals face is the emergence of gray hair. It's a journey that goes beyond just the physical changes; it's a journey of self-acceptance, confidence, and embracing the natural beauty that comes with age. For me, this journey began when I turned 50 in December 2023. It was a milestone birthday, and I decided it was time to bid farewell to the routine of hair dyeing and embrace the authenticity of my graying locks. Little did I know, this decision would spark a profound transformation, not just in my appearance, but in my outlook on aging. However, my decision to let my gray hair shine wasn't met with unanimous applause. I encountered a barrage of negative feedback, with many projecting their own insecurities onto me, expressing concerns about looking older. Yet, amidst the sea of doubt, one unwavering beacon of support stood by my side – my husband. H...
