50th Annual Ann Arbor Art Fair





Tomorrow I will be going to the annual Ann Arbor Art Fair. The fair is absolutely HUGE, blocks and blocks of art work, food, and crazy cool deals at the clothing stores there. Urban Outfitters has unreal deals at their street sale and it is one of my favorite stores. Don't get me wrong I love walking around and looking at all of the beautiful artwork but none of it is really in my price range...ie they want 4 grand for a blown up photo of a building in Italy. I mean I could take that myself, so maybe someday I'll be lucky enough to travel and take amazing photographs and then sell them for an outrageous price! (I can only hope) But this is one of my favorite summer activities and Ann Arbor is a favorite city of mine and I look forward to it every year! And if you've ever been, you know what I am talking about.

The Fourth Of July

                
For the fourth of July my family all gathered at my cousins, Jackie and Jake's house. It was a two for one party. We celebrated the fourth and my grandpa's 80th birthday. I also went to Ft. Meigs in Perrysburg on the 3rd for fireworks, which were awesome! I love the 4th of July, even though the weather wasn't the greatest this year it was still fun. I don't know if it's the fact that it is the middle of summer and there is family, friends, great food, a pool and explosives, that make me love this holiday. Or that we are the only country who celebrate our freedom by blowing stuff up and drinking while handling it and the simple joy that little kids get from fireworks. Well, thanks to all our Vets and current soldiers in the United States Armed Forces who make this holiday possible!
