Happy Memorial Day!

Happy Memorial Day!  Thanks to all the men and women who have served or currently serve in the military for our country!  I'm so thankful for those who have sacrificed so much to serve, especially those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. 

Last week, we had dinner with Wyatt's parents and aunt at our favorite spot downtown, the Black Sparrow.  It was a lovely evening so we walked around downtown a little bit.  That's when I snapped that gorgeous picture of our courthouse above.  We also walked to the pedestrian bridge across the Wabash River.

We finally made it to a Farmers' Market on Saturday! It was cloudy but nice morning after a brief rain shower came through.  We stopped and got a donut at Mary Lou Donuts and then drove ahead downtown and walked around the market.  It was great to see so many people downtown. 

We went a few block up to Smittybread to grab lunch and a loaf of their Lafayette sourdough bread! It's so cute and was delicious! We'll be back for bread and for sandwiches!

Yesterday, we spend the afternoon and evening over at our friends' house for fajitas and margaritas! It was so fun and the food was so good. One word...queso.

Today, we spent half the day with Wyatt's parents working on cleaning out the garage! It was hot out there today! But we got so much accomplished!

Fall Farmers' Market

I have posted before about how we enjoy our local Farmers' Market.  As the season is winding down, we tried to venture downtown for at least one more market Saturday.  We picked up some fresh produce and an oatmeal crème pie each.  The weather was gorgeous and vendors have all the delicious fall fruits and vegetables. We will miss our market mornings this winter and can't wait until they return next spring.

Farmers' Market Saturdays

We love our local farmers' market!  Life has been busy lately so last weekend was the first chance we had to go to our market this year but we took full advantage of the morning.  We grabbed some fresh produce, some break and yummy baked goods, and lamb chops!

Sangria Tea from Scone and Doilies was delish!

We also took the opportunity to check out some of the art downtown.  They have been working on a project on our Main Street that had me avoiding the area because of construction but it's turned out so nice.  They bumped out the sidewalks to allow for some of the restaurant to have outdoor seating.  Since I hadn't been downtown much for quite some time, it was fun to find some new (at least new to me) alley art.  There are also a couple of new sculptures and murals throughout the downtown area.  I can't wait to go back downtown and check everything else out!

And although this is not new, it's still one of my favorites to come to our downtown area.

Lafayette Weekend

Just a few pictures from my trip to Lafayette last weekend to see Wyatt.  We went to the farmer's market on Saturday morning and picked up some stuff for the dinner we made on Saturday night.
