Remember my blog post on Friday, where I wrote about wanting to go to a Tigers game? Right after I wrote that I talked to my best friend Monica, and she told me she had just won tickets to Saturday’s game on the radio! Her and Mark were going to go, and Julie called and was able to get a ticket right behind them. I talked with Dan, who was super bummed that I asked if we could go, because he had actually wanted to surprise me with tickets himself! It was like we were all fated to go together. I called and got tickets for us next to Julie, and the weekend planning got started.
We just had to get dinner at Slow’s before the game (of course), and Kim met us for drinks and dinner before we headed out to the game. It was perfect weather, and a beautiful evening in Detroit.
I wore the dress I’d just finished making that morning. It’s inspired by a new Megan Neilson tutorial, but I used a romper I had that had a number of holes in the shorts instead of a tank top, and a floor length black jersey dress as the skirt. It came together so easily using her tutorial, and I love it!
It was a great game, and the Tigers killed the Mariners.
The sunset in the stadium is SO beautiful!
Afterwards, there were fireworks on the field. It was awesome! So glad we went!
Sunday I worked in our garden a bit (the zinnias are blooming now and the tomato, cucumbers and peppers have little buds on them – yay!), and Kim came over for a secret project to do with a certain someone’s birthday. Then Dan and I headed out to the opening weekend of the New Center Park.
We watched a couple great bands, ate some fresh nectarines, and had a cold drink. The park was awesome, and I’m really excited to see more bands there this summer!
Monday was a buying day, and I got so many great things for the shop (and of course a few things for myself!)
It was a really great weekend in the city with my mister. By the way, it’s his 31st birthday tomorrow – Happy Birthday Dan!!!
