Definitely feeling the love this week! Thank you

🐟The Trout Festival was a lot of fun this year!💙I had the best "fish taco ground man" in the world!.

Friday night live will forever be one of my favorite local events. I remember going to the sidewalk sale as a kid. Closing down Front, to have an old school street party. 🎉 Downtown TC (Official)

🦜I went to a pirate party in East Jordan last Saturday, and happened to meet a nice gentleman that was over 7 feet tall with flat shoes on! lol. I told him he holds the record for the tallest human I've stood next to so far lol.

🦜Go be a Pirate in Boyne City this weekend at Pirate Fest!

My oldest son currently works as a warehouse manager for

✨This photo is not of my son and I, but of some young gentlemen trying to sell me windows.... Lol He made me laugh so hard! I asked if I could have a photo with him to show my son later😂🤣💕

I can't forget to post about the amazing Up North Busker Festival last weekend. East Jordan is truly a hidden gem in Michigan. If you have never been there, you should go visit. Mark your calendars for Busker Fest 2024! 🎉🥸🤟

My heart is filled with so much gratitude for all the opportunities I've been given to spread joy throughout the city I love. This is when I stop to give thanks. 💯🙏 💕

🎉Day #8! Community heroes all around! I met the man (Peter)from the entrance banner. He told me his Cherry Fest Pin selling stats, and how long he's been giving back to this festival. Volunteering for over 35 years! Princess Snugs, and a friend from Project Feed The Kids came over to say hello as well. This is why I love Traverse City. It is full of amazing people.

🎉Day #7! Photos with new friends in blue, 💙 and old friends from school. Sometimes I feel like a professional people watcher lol. Paying attention to my surroundings is part of the job. One thing I noticed last night was two people dressed as Spider-Man. One was Peter, and the other Miles... I didn't get a photo with them, but I DID ask if they liked the new Spider-Man movie....

"It was fire" was Peter's response.
I couldn't agree more lol. If you haven't seen the movie yet. This is your sign to do it. 🍿 🎥

🎉Day #6! I Joined my family and walked in the Parade representing Real Estate One.💙 Started on 8th street near Silver Spruce. Then we walked to F&M park, down front street, and over to Fourteenth. Breaking my TC stilt-walking record. 🫶🥸💕

🎉Day #5! I enjoyed the overcast weather, and bumped into another old friend getting ready to party! 🥳

🎉Day #4! 💙🤍❤️🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲Happy Independence day everyone!

Day #3. I love bumping into locals through the chaos.

🎉Day 2✌️😜🍒 . I saw my freshwater mermaid friend, Phantom!.. I also spotted a guy dressed up as a buffalo dancing across the festival grounds. Sadly I do not have one photo to prove my claim.🦬😆💕

As a TC native, I understand getting the Cherry Festival blues. I have found the best way to get through this week, is to join in on the fun🎉🤓 I want to hear how the rest of you natives get through the Cherry Fest lol 😆👍💕 Good, bad, beautiful, & ugly.

Day 1 of Cherry Festival complete! Come join me for day✌️😎

I pulled over 16 costumes, for 8 days of Cherry Festival! 🌸 🍒 🌸🍒🌸🍒🌸

🎉We were cast in a film! 🎬🤡

fills my heart with inspiration every single year. I truly adore these woods. Too much to say, with not enough words to express how I feel. As I returned home to begin working again, I remember why I started stilt-walking in the first place. For changing my life.

💚If you know how much I love ribbons... Then you understand how much this ribbon tree means to me. ☺️🥰🤓😍

Hippie Fest in Trufant MI was a lot of fun this year. I took my hippie daughter along, and she had so much fun. These are some of the photos she took of me! Had to leave early for another event up north, but we both agreed that next year we want to stay both days if we are able. Such a wonderful family friendly festival. ✌️😍🎉

If you missed out on the fun yesterday, there's always the next one. Project Feed The Kids is doing amazing things for our community. I truly look up to them.🫶🥸 🎪💕 They are hosting an adult prom, and pig roast later this summer. Attend an event, have a little fun, and help

SO much fun yesterday in Beautiful Empire MI. The weather was nice, the food was great, and I could see smiles for miles. I always look forward to going to this event! If you are ever in this area, Empire Beach is one of our Northern Michigan treasures.💚

I'm excited to go back to the Asparagus Festival in beautiful Empire, MI. Come out and have fun with me. If you haven't tried deep fried Asparagus, and Asparagus beer, you're not living. 💚 😁
