An Artistic Weekend

When we first moved to Ohio one of our first exploring trips took us to Ann Arbor, MI. It was at that time that we found out about their huge art fair in July that takes over the entire downtown. This past weekend we went to the fair and I cannot believe how quickly time has flown. Can you believe that Matt and I have been in OH for 6 months! I can't...

We went to the art fair with Matt's boss. She is really nice and it's been nice to get to know her on a social level on top of a business level. We play softball with her as well, so that is how we have gotten a chance to see her outside of work. She mentioned that she was going to the fair the same day as us so we thought it would be a nice idea for us all to go together. We aren't used to mixing business with pleasure and I think if Matt wasn't a hard-working employee, this wouldn't work. But thankfully Matt is a good employee so his boss can let her guard down and we can enjoy each other's company! :)

I bought someone a Christmas gift while I was there. I won't mention her name, but I'll give you all a clue. Her name can be spelled the same in either direction and she gave birth to me. Now I know these clues don't divulge a lot, but I think with some hard work, you can come up with it! ;)

While we were there, we had an awesome lunch. Ann Arbor is the closest we've come to replicating our restaurant experience in Chico. Probably because it's another college town.  We sat upstairs so this was our aerial view.


We all had an awesome day. Here are some random photos I took of the town.






I love how the sign below uses air conditioning as a selling point.  But I'll tell you this - it's smart because we were so....... HOT!

Before we left, we had to go to the local cupcake shop.  I go every time I visit and I haven't been disappointed yet!




One happy camper! Don't worry, they weren't all for me - two for Matt! :)
