I've Taken 2 Photos

These are the two photos I have from the past few days of being home haha. The first photo was taken by my mom yesterday at Farmer’s Market and the second was taken about thirty minutes ago at a new coffee shop in town. I had seen friends post about this four level new-addition to downtown and it does not disappoint. It’s really beautiful and even has co-working spaces. My little town feels so familiar that it always surprises me a little to see any big changes. It’s very rainy today so my plans for being outside were thwarted but I plan on having a cozy evening with my family. My step mom is cooking dinner so I’ll head over to my dad’s in a couple hours. I still haven’t seen three out of four of my siblings so hopefully they’ll all be there tonight. I hope you’ve had a nice weekend! Expect a vlog later today!

Estas são as duas fotos que tenho dos últimos dias de aqui em Chico haha. A primeira foto foi tirada por minha mãe ontem no Farmer’s Market e a segunda foi tirada há cerca de trinta minutos em um novo café no centro. Eu tinha visto amigos postarem sobre essa nova adição de quatro níveis ao centro da cidade e isso não me decepcionou. É muito bonito e também tem espaços de co-working. Minha pequena cidade me parece tão familiar que sempre me surpreendo um pouco ao ver qualquer grande mudança. Está muito chuvoso hoje, então meus planos de ficar do lado de fora foram frustrados, mas pretendo ter uma noite aconchegante com minha família. Minha madrasta está preparando o jantar, então irei para a casa do meu pai em algumas horas. Eu ainda não vi três em cada quatro dos meus irmãos, então espero que todos eles estejam lá esta noite. Espero que você tenha tido um bom fim de semana! Espere um vlog mais tarde hoje!

Thursday Night Market

There are quite a few things that make Chico summer so wonderful, and Thursday Night Market is surely one. Every Thursday evening a few streets downtown are blocked off to make way for the throngs of people who come to shop at the booths and stands along the sides. There is anything from produce to clothes, to homemade soaps and food trucks. The city plaza is at the end of the street and there you can find a fountain that keeps kids cool and entertained while different community performances take place on an adjacent stage. This week there were hula dancers! I went with my mom this past week and we strolled around, watched the dancers and my friend Jesse who was singing and playing guitar in-between a couple booths. It was a lovely little evening that ended in getting a little saucy with my mom at a jazz bar afterwards. My mom is the cutest.
