Last weekend there was a block party one block away from our new place. How perfect! It was a great chance to check out the local businesses and what they offer. Especially the restaurants. I had a super tasty beet salad and a cucumber basil lemonade that was really good.

The block party was put on my the new apartment complex that is being built on the corner (which doesn’t make me so happy-I really dislike the new buildings going up) but regardless I was still curious about what they looked like and they were offering tours. We put on hardhats and took a look around. They aren’t bad but they aren’t my thing (also they are on the pricey side).

It was nice being so close to home because we were a little sleepy after the block party so we just lazied around at home for a little while and relaxed. I really like not having to go far from home to have a little fun.
