Date night in Grand Rapids

On Saturday David and I spent the evening in Grand Rapids. First we headed to Easttown to try a restaurant we have not yet been to. Generally we find ourselves eating at the same couple restaurants (Electric Cheetah is our fave) but I wanted to try something new. We decided on Chez Olga mainly because of what it looked like on the outside!

Chez Olga: the coolest looking restaurant I've ever seen! 

Fourth of July Weekend 2014

On Thursday I made the two and a half hour trek to the other side of the state for the holiday weekend. I had never driven that far before by myself but it turned out just fine. There was relatively little traffic and the weather was good. I got there before my friend Ryan was home so I had a couple hours to kill. I just walked around campus and read by the pond. I was in a great mood, excited for the upcoming festivities, until I returned to my car and found a bright orange parking ticket :(
