On July 5th a big storm came through our town! It was crazy. It came out of nowhere. It was sunny one minute then super dark, windy & rainy the next. It left just as fast as it came, it was nuts. After the storm we walked outside with the rest of our neighborhood to find the damage the storm had left behind. How crazy!
We lost our power for 14 hours! It was a real adventure--a whole night without power! It was too hot to sleep in our rooms upstairs, so we had a sleepover on the main floor and used a flashlight to read stories.
(we feel so blessed that we only had one night without power-nearby towns have been out of power for a week or more!)
Friday night a neighbor that we don't even know brought over a bunch of construction toys & tools for the kids. They have been loving playing with them. We have such nice neighbors!
Saturday we checked out the Ann Arbor farmers market. It was so super hot! At one point, Tucker goes,"mom-my hair is all wet!" ha ha. But, we love Farmers Markets, and we love Ann Arbor, and we're really excited about all the great produce we snagged while we were there. Tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, peppers, peaches & blueberries. Only about half the blueberries make it home, the kids loved them!
My little adventurer all tuckered out. Whew. What a fun day.
This summer is flying by! How is is already the 2nd week of July?!
The Ann arbor farmers market is amazing! There are a bunch of farms in the area where you can pick the produce too. One more Ann arbor tip, in the fall go get pumpkin donuts at Jenny's farm in dexter. It will be worth the trip, I promise!
