FRIDAY FAVORITES UP NORTH MICHIGAN AGAIN & MORE

It was back to our home away from home in Northern last weekend, and this time sweet Stella got to go! Here’s a little recap. The weekend was definitely a favorite. Lots of goodness plus some bonuses in this post!!

 

Stella and the Sunset

We could tell the Sunset was going to be beautiful our first night there and we were excited to get Stella out on the beach to see it.




Even better the 2nd night

 

Walks and Bike rides

Mr. Nine had gotten me a new bike from Coastline cycles, a great bike shop up there. I got the most darling basket to go on the front, but Stella did not like it so Mr. Nine found This Great One on Amazon and she went the 9 miles with us like a trooper! Of course, lots of walks too and Stella found that the beach with her litter box so to speak, lol.



Beach

OH, how Stella LOVED the Beach!



Coffee Breaks

I have a favorite coffee shop in town, and they had just made a batch of their homemade pumpkin spice syrup, so you know what I got, lol. 


St. Ambrose

Always such fun going to the big red barn and listening to music. Stella just loved all the people watching. Outfit from Title Pic today as it was believe it or not, my favorite outfit of the trip! Shirt HERE

 

THIS FAB AND AFFORDABLE PLAID SHIRT HERE // Sandals HERE // Shorts HERE (my fav denim shorts)




Furnace Street Distillery

It’s a fact that we love listening to live music so much that we went again another night and what a delight! Not only was the food truck there with wood fired pizzas and gelato but The cocktails were out of this world and just look how pretty!  The musician who performed was Jerome Forde, and his sweet wife was so precious, she is dancing & hula hooping the whole time behind him to all his songs! What a supportive wife! This is a new place that we will be going to a lot up there!




Watching the Notre Dame game of course
