Onto part 2 of my northern Michigan road trip with Pure Michigan! The second leg of the trip was spent in Alpena. So I road-tripped from the west side of the state… over to the east side of the state! Read on for my time trekking over from Bellaire to Alpena!
Read MoreA couple of weekends ago, I had the amazing opportunity to go on a northern Michigan road trip with Pure Michigan up to Bellaire and Alpena!
Read MoreHere’s my full post from our amazing ladies summer weekend in Marquette, Michigan! This was a quick trip… we headed up on Friday from Grand Rapids (about a 6.5 hour drive) and got there to spend Friday night, Saturday all day, and Sunday before heading back home. So this is our ~2 day itinerary of all the places we visited, ate, and drank at! It was the best weekend.
Read MoreI could seriously relive this weekend over and over. I headed down to southwest Michigan to do a little wine tasting. Went to Lemon Creek Winery & Round Barn. Round Barn was my favorite… they had boozy slushies, and they were SO good. I had their frosé and mango one. After that, headed back up to Saugatuck, had dinner at The Southerner, watched the sunset at Oval Beach and got soft-serve ice-cream on the way home. Like 🙌🏻. Perfect day.
Read MoreIt’s that time of year again… visiting the tulip fields! This day was so magical, and so needed. I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to go with everything going on, but when garden centers re-opened a couple of weeks ago in Michigan, I was so excited to make the trip out to Holland! There was no Tulip Time this year, which was sad. But just being outside, in the sunshine, with this gorgeous scene around me… just made my soul so happy. It’s strange to explain but just filling my life with these scenes gives me so much joy. Especially in such a dark time. These are the moments that make up my life, you know? I don’t know, being cheesy over here. But I loved this afternoon, I’m so glad I went, it healed my heart a little bit, and I’m so grateful for this day.

Phew! Here we are, in the midst of the Coronavirus. I had no idea life could change so fast in such a short amount of time, that’s for sure. I guess I’m lucky to say that, my life has been pretty blessed. But this past weekend, I pretty much broke down. Friday night was my lowest point. So Saturday, I was like… what do I love doing most? What can I do in this current situation that will make me happy? Duh, lighthouses. ❤️ I got into my car and just headed straight to Grand Haven, and I decided I was going to see as MANY lighthouses as possible until the sun went down. And that’s exactly what I did. And as cheesy as this sounds, lighthouses have always given me some light in my life, hope, something to look forward to. And the scenes and memories of this day gave me so much peace. As I was climbing dunes and just sitting in the sand taking in the views of the lake and the lighthouses, I just felt like “me”.
