Please, excuse my absence…

It has been a while!  I guess that is what happens when you are busy having fun 🙂

I will do a quick recap of what life has been handing me, using mostly photos:

Classically AWESOME!

I can’t even remember where I left off, so we will just start with this awesome car that we stumbled upon outside of Home Depot one Saturday when my bestie, Julie, was in town.  That whole weekend was fun, complete with shopping, drinks in the sun, waffles at the City Market, just good times had by all.

Julie, being cute and stylish 🙂

Paul and I have been cooking up a storm:

Vegan Pot Stickers and Orange Chicken (Gardein brand… not a fan of imitation meat, but we went for it)

Tempeh Sloppy Joes… I had forgotten all about this childhood favorite

Baked apple chips: because only a fool doesn’t like snacks

There was a cool benefit in a barn with beer and music!

It was a double date with my Uncle Tom and Aunt Janice

Took a day trip to the Upper Peninsula for work allowing me to cross something off of my bucket list:  hiring my brother to fly me somewhere 🙂

Big bro doing is thing 🙂 So proud of him!

Leaving Escanaba, flying over Lake Michigan, heading back to the lower peninsula

I took a moment after a meeting to stop and appreciate the world:

Received over 90 pokes for my allergy test… and am allergic to everything! (and should also never get an upper arm tattoo:

I guess this is the mark of my tribe…?

Loved on my kids:

ImageWent to a Detroit Tiger’s game with our best friends, and my true boyfriend:

Image

This was his first pop ever! We had to keep reminding him to call it “root beer” and not just beer

Image

We stopped in Greek Town for some pre-game food:

From some angles, Detroit doesn’t seem so bad

Then headed to the game where we witnessed a Tiger’s loss, but still had a great time:

This weekend, we are going camping, so cross your fingers that it goes well.

What have you all been up to?
