Fresh snow, a perfect way to wake up on a sunny Michigan winter morning.
Fresh snow, a perfect way to wake up on a sunny Michigan winter morning.

Snowfall has been disappointing here in Grand Rapids, Michigan the last few years. However, last night made up for a lot of that. This is what we woke up to this morning. I broke our snowblower blasting away at the heavy, wet snow, but luckily my awesome neighbors came to the rescue and helped us out.

On another note, today I noticed that Grand Rapids, MI was named the number one city to raise a family in the United States by Forbes Magazine… and ArtPrize was recently named one of the “Top 5 Festive Events in the World that You Don’t Want to Miss” by Time Magazine. It is so wonderful to see this state getting some love from the media.

Grand Haven, MI Beach winter cold
Grand Haven... just to the left of the lighthouse

The beach in Grand Haven sports this wonderful pier that connects with a pretty red lighthouse, so naturally that’s the photo everyone takes. Last time I was in Grand Haven I just wanted a different shot and this is what I came up with. It was really, really cold out there… can you tell?
