After a cool 3 hour drive from Chicago, we made it to Brian’s cousin’s house in Oshkosh, WI. It was Memorial Day weekend and technically our first anniversary. We decided to spend the weekend with Ashley (Brian’s cousin) and her husband Jeff. Practically newlyweds themselves, they just purchased their first home, where Brian and I hadn’t yet been.

We made it! Let's drink!

Upon arrival, we were greeted with enthusiasm and a plethora of drink options.

After a tour of the house and some strong cocktails we turned our attention to this chest of Grandma’s.

It was full of vintage clothes & accessories from Grandma’s life. She wore this blue dress to her daughter’s wedding.

Some of the clothes had notes attached stating their significance.

We tried some on.

And threw away others. Like these pajamas. Uncle Glen died in them. Gross.

There was this incredible kimono. Sadly, it did not have a note attached.

Then we went out on the town to scope the local scene. Brian kept it classy.

Ashley’s friend Erin met up with us.

Then we went to another bar. This one had a beer garden and the best ambient lighting for my Sony camera.

Lunch on the water, because you know, Wisconsin.

Sadly, my beautiful, new Sony digital camera got knocked off the table at this restaurant. It is not currently working. I don’t want to talk about it.
