Its become a yearly tradition for me to head up to Frankenmuth and shop small for Black Friday in the quaint shops around the town. This year, I decided to also try a new location (for me) for lunch, Frankenmuth Brewery! Boy was this place hopping!

Casual Michigan Game Day Fashion
One of the many things that I love about Fall is that it’s also football season. I’ve decided to highlight a bit more of that part of my life this year. While I’m not hitting up games every weekend, you can sure bet I’m cheering them on in some fashion. So, whether your throwing a killer spread in front of the couch, hosting a tailgate or hitting up a sports bar to watch the game; I’m sharing one of my weekend looks and a couple of my favorite places that I find my game day fashions.

To kick off the start of football season, I threw a brunch fit for any University of Michigan fan. Y’all know I love a good theme, so of course I went all out! Including customizing my own napkins. I tried my best to customize the menu to fit ‘Maize & Blue’ as much as possible while keeping the tradition of brunch and a splash of good old fashioned football.

Last week I had the pleasure of returning to Holland, Michigan after 15 years. While I was there this time for a jam packed work trip, I still managed to re-live some of my past traditions as well as explore some new ones!

My story with Manitou Beach is just beginning! It was truly love at first sight when I discovered the town for the first time. A scenario I like to call a “happy accident”, but has God’s hand all over it! The town has quickly become one of my favorite escapes and I couldn’t wait to share it with you. I took a random day off from work during the July 4th weekend and had a blast shopping and exploring.

While it may appear to be a post about a girl’s day trip to Saint Joseph, Michigan and it totally is! I’m also sharing a piece of my heart about disappointment, plot twists and listening to what God has planned rather than your plans this week.
5-2-Oh Food Truck
It’s finally Friday, so let’s talk about tacos! Because what would go better with a Friday than tacos?! A couple weeks ago I shared the absolute best tacos in my life while I was shopping in Frankenmuth on my Instagram stories. Well, now I’m giving you all of the details.
My Guide to Ann Arbor: West Side
Whether your coming for a visit, passing through or even decided to attend the University of Michigan my wish is that these lists of my favorite spots in Ann Arbor help guide your way through the city that has been my playground all my life. I decided to start off my Guide to Ann Arbor with the side that I tend to spend most of my time in, the West Side! It’s actually closest to Chelsea, so it only takes me about 15 minutes to get to all of my favorites.
The Brown Basset
As soon as I heard that a new dog bakery was opening in Chelsea I started stalking their page like a Kate Spade bag on sale. Once the grand opening was announced I planned a date with Tucker to take him to The Brown Basset. I was lucky enough to meet the owners the night before so I was already on friendly terms before I even walked in the door. I’ve made a bit of a Friday habit by stopping by after work for Tucker’s t-r-e-a-t-s for the week.
