Eagle Creek hike

we took a hike on the first day of 80 degree weather at eagle creek in the gorge







We built this table from the other half of the pallet we used for the herb garden, it was supposed to be full size but it looked goofy so its more of a coffee table for the porch.

We feel ALive!

The sun does amazing things for us, we know things are looking up when the tulips poke out, thank goodness, the weekend was beautiful but another rainy week is ahead... we soaked it up while we had it

new pots and some shrubbery
There was an old pallet in the basement that we cut in half and used for our herb garden


Eating at the Zenbu food cart, Andrew loooves this place and is convinced the food knows that the sun is out, it tasted real good

And hanging out with the pooch, she always knows where to find the warmth to lay around in

A few days lounging with the Christensen's. It was a warm day at the lake. The boys were the first to the ice cream truck but a bunch of kids butted

Fireworks

Downtown Portland fireworks on the water. We didn't have a super good view, but it was a good show and a nice bike ride.
