His & Hers

When we moved into our new apartment in Ann Arbor we were lucky enough to have lots of natural light. Two of the sources are window box sky lights that are located directly above two small closets. In these closets we have his and hers alpha storage systems where we keep some of our clothes.

On one fateful trip to IKEA we decided to each pick out a plant to put into our respective sky light shelves. We went with succulents, each a little different from the other... just like us.

Now, 7 months later, our His & Hers plants have had some time to grow and get comfortable, each in their own way.

His is very direct in his search for sunlight & sustenance.

Hers is a little all over the place, with a need to check out everything.

I think this says a lot about us.

How do we get to Canadialand?

A few weeks back ago on a Sunday Kris, Dane and I had nothing to do, so we thought, with Windsor, Canada less than an hour away, why not hop in the car to what what we could see.

We headed north on the freeway, passed Detroit, paid a toll and got to cross a bridge. Not quite the Golden Gate, huh?

We stopped at the travel center on the way in to pick up some maps

Kris & Dane were very excited to receive these information booklets. (Don't adjust your computer screens folks... they really are that pale)

We grabbed some Chinese food, headed to Caesar's Palace and watched the US lose to Canada in hockey... what else was there to do on a Sunday.

And we passed this on our way out of Canada, it must be where babies go to get their drink on, no?
