Portland

 

Last weekend, Aaron, June,and I went down to Portland to visit some friends and celebrate Aaron’s birthday. We left at around 3:00 and it was only supposed to take 3 hours, but the traffic was so horrendous that it took 5 hours! It was awful. June couldn’t get a good sleep with all the stopping of the traffic that she only slept 45 min the whole time. That didn’t bother her, she was still happy! When we got there we ate some pizza and the kids went to bed. We stayed up and talked and laughed and talked about the old times. Chrisite and Ben had visited us a couple times before and we thought it would be fun to spend a couple days with them.

The next morning we went to the Children’s Museum.Christie and Ben also have a little boy, about a year and a half. The kids had tons of fun! It was fun to see them explore and take it all in. We went home and the kids napped. Lately Aaron had been obsessed with Survivor, so we watched a couple episodes of that. We all went out to dinner and had such a fun time!

On Sunday it was Aaron’s birthday. We went out to breakfast and walked through the mall. Aaron has also wanting to get an ipad 2….. every time we call an apple store or go by a store they are all sold out and you have to get up very early to wait in line for one. He is still patiently waiting to get one. Aaron isn’t a big sweets guy, so I didn’t bake him a cake, but I did bake his favorite cookies. Christie and I got him a Jamba Juice. We stuck a little candle in the top and sang “Happy Birthday”. It was such a fun time! They way home was a lot faster,so that was nice. We hope to visit them again sometime soon.I didn’t take tons of pictures… still getting use to bringing my camera everywhere
