This week on Our Uncommon Life, we’re keeping things light and fun as we recap our weekend getaway up in Traverse City ...complete with family time, crab legs, and a little chaos (because of course).

We chat about what it’s like for Zac to hang out with his in-laws (spoiler: he actually always enjoys it), our four-year anniversary of owning the condo, and the mix of nostalgia and gratitude that comes with that milestone. From all-you-can-eat crab legs and a few lucky (or not-so-lucky) spins at the casino, to checking out new local favorites like Sisters and Glendale Burgers, it was one of those perfectly imperfect weekends that reminded us why we love this place so much.

Zac also got to sneak in a golf day with the guys at Grand Traverse Resort, while Vena… had a slightly less glamorous morning at Munson Hospital for what we’re now calling “the Great Gas Incident of 2025.” (Don’t worry, she lived to tell the tale.)

It’s a weekend recap episode full of laughter, real-life moments, and the reminder that the best memories are usually the unplanned ones.
