hi there! veronika from tick tock vintage here. as most of you know, i had the awesome opportunity to take a little trip to michigan to visit tieka last week. she lives in such a beautiful town, and i thought i'd share some of my favorite pictures from the trip.
her little town is right on the coast of lake michigan; the sun setting on the lake was one of the most beautiful things i've ever seen. doesn't the picture above look like a postcard? i was tempted to write "wish you were here!" on it, har har.
this was the first time i've actually seen a lighthouse up close and personal; this one was at the end of a long pier at the edge of the lake. 
we went to east lansing to have lunch with maria before her big move to minneapolis. please excuse my wrinkly shorts!

i'm absolutely enamored with the houses in grand haven - this kelly green one was one of my favorites. i don't think i saw one house that i wouldn't happily live in. they were all so well kept up!

we had a little date night; we walked on the pier, visited the musical fountain, and stopped for coffees. tres romantique, no?
this trip was also the first time that i've ever been on a scooter, too! tieka's pretty dress kept popping up in the mirror.
i hope you've liked my pictures from the trip! keep your eyes peeled for a couple more recap posts from tieka and i.
