A Day in Portland

On Sunday we went to Portland for the day to visit Russell and Anna! We checked out their new apartment - its super cute and in a great location. We had lunch at an awesome buffalo wings place, then headed to Laurelhurst park. What a fantastic park - it had a large pond with ducks, lots of open fields, and some really neat walking trails. Not to mention the weather was absolutely perfect! We had a fantastic day with them, and can't wait to get back down for another visit!

Mother's Day

We had a wonderful Mother's Day! We met my parents and in-laws for brunch, and then we all walked around the Wooden Boat Festival on the waterfront. It was warm and sunny out - such a treat! Later that day at home, we had some fun playing in the backyard, and then Garrett BBQ'd for dinner. It was the perfect day! I just love being a mom - I am amazed of Brooks everyday, and feel very blessed.

I am so blessed to have two very special women in my lives - my mom and mother-in-law. They are both amazing women! I am SUPER lucky!

Happy 3rd Birthday Oly!

On Monday we celebrated Oly's 3rd birthday! Wow, time flies when you're having fun! We got Oly when we lived in Las Vegas, and had a fabulous year there while she was a spunky little puppy. She is such a trooper and is WONDERFUL with Brooks. They are quite the pals!
