Happy Monday! It’s a holiday week which means more time with friends and family + some extra relaxation or fun in the sun. We’ve been busy or gone every single weekend in June so we’re beyond thrilled to be in Grand Rapids this week. What are your plans for the long weekend? Do you have 4th of July traditions that you do with your family? Fireworks, s’mores, a parade and maybe a trip to the lakeshore is a must for me. If you need some ideas for things to do scroll down for this week’s 411 in the 616. I hope you have a great 4th of July friends!
