Hello Monday! This past weekend was absolutely gorgeous with temps in the 60s. I tried to take full advantage of getting things done outside like harvesting my peppers, planting some mums and taking apart the patio furniture. And let’s be honest a trip to the apple orchard was also a must for pumpkin spice donuts and apple cider. I hope you had a wonderful weekend enjoying the fall weather. There’s some great things happening around Grand Rapids this week so be sure to scroll down for the 411 int he 616.
