wow it's been a while since i've done this list! we, personally, have a very full weekend of stuff going on. i'll share with you some of the things we'll be doing and some that we won't but are still cool anyway.
we are a family who enjoy intentional outings on the weekend. it can be as simple as going to the library or something a bit more involved like heading out to an event. it's fun. and most times it's inexpensive (we plan it that way). most of all, it gets us out of the house and into the community around us.

the amazing, new york-based modern dance company alvin ailey american dance theatre will be here in cleveland this weekend! you don't even know how excited i am. the last time i had an opportunity to see them was back when i was in seattle. and i missed them then. i couldn't miss another chance to see them this time. who knows when they'll be touring at my city of residence again? i am looking forward to the show tonight. my sweet husband has graciously given up his spot as date (i don't think he minded that much), so i will be going with a new/old friend (old as in we've been facebook friends for maybe a year, but new in that we've never hung out together in real life), valerie. side note: if you haven't had the chance to stop by her shop yet or check out her work, please do! she makes some cool stuff. tickets are still available for this event. prices range from $10-$70. the show starts at 8 p.m.

cinco de mayo aside, get yourself to the screw factory artists' spring open studio. we've gone to a few of these and we do make it a point not to try and miss one. this is a free event running from noon - . in addition to the many talented artists participating, there will be vendors there including coffee for a cause, fresh fork market (sign up for your summer CSA!), the sweet spot, rosy girl baked goods, fired up taco truck and the nosh box food truck. a treat for the senses!
it's semi-finals for cleveland's burning river roller girls! if you like roller derby then you don't want to miss out on this fun event at the wolstein center. we have yet to go, but would like to plan on making a date night out of it some day. and when all the kids can start tolerating later nights, then we'll definitely be making this a family affair. tickets are $12 in advance or $17 at the door. kids 12 and under are $6 each. doors open at 5 p.m. with the first bout starting at 6 p.m.
