July is Here

Welcome, July! You came a bit quicker than we all imagined, but we're ready for you.
Katelyn and I both had a crazy/busy/fun-filled weekend. We attended a concert for free Friday night and then I headed to a New Belgium Brewing event where I drank free VIP beers until the wee hours of the night. Saturday evening was spent at the Tegan and Sara concert where I danced and sang my heart out. We went tubing down the river Sunday with a group of friends and it was a ridiculous amount of fun. That is, until I went chasing after a water snake and almost drowned under a bridge. That's all in the past now.

East Hills

Laura took me out for a pre-birthday dinner yesterday at a local Thai restaurant. It has been the most perfect 24th birthday! It's been full of flowers, balloons, presents & even a doughnut cake for my breakfast from the hubby. I'm so thankful to have people in my life that completely fill up my heart!

Traverse City

Last Friday I headed to Traverse City for both work and leisure. After a meeting with a client and scoping out the The Village at Traverse City Commons, I spent the rest of the evening with Steven.

We grabbed some delicious tacos and tamales at this adorable little authentic restaurant called Spanglish, which was honestly some of the best food I've ever had. That meal was followed up by some jaw-droppingly good chocolate dripped frozen cheesecake on a stick from the Underground Cheesecake Company. Mind: blown.

We drove around through the vineyards, went mini golfing, watched the sunset over the lake, and relaxed. It was cold, windy, and rainy but I managed to have such an awesome time regardless.

Saturday morning we headed over to Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. In 2011 this park was named the "Most Beautiful Place in America". Pretty awesome, right? It was Steven's first time there so it was really exciting to see his reaction to all of the breathtaking stops on the scenic trail.

 Since we were already in Glen Arbor, we made a quick pit stop at Cherry Republic before hitting the road. It's another favorite place of mine where everything in their shops are made from cherries. Cherry wine, cherry salsa, cherry chocolate, cherry soda, etc. The best. 

It was an awesome trip and a nice break from reality for a minute. Traverse City is such a beautiful place to be during this time of year. I already can't wait to go back.

Wealthy Street

One of the positive things about our old house on Paris was how close it was to some bakeries and coffee shops. Laura and I decided to re-visit one of our favorites for some cinnamon rolls at Wealthy Street Bakery (check out these bad boys). Now that we've consumed our daily amount of sugar for the entire day, it's time to tackle this Thursday!

Tomorrow is Friday!! It's going to be a fun-filled weekend and I can't wait to share some moments from my Traverse City trip. Fingers crossed that I have some time for wine tasting. What's a trip to northern Michigan without homemade wine?
