Jen was so sweet to come out to Adren and Ella's wedding. We chatted as much as we could, but it was a busy night, and there is just never enough time to catch up!
She and Brad reserved a place in Oregon near Mt. Hood for a week for their family to get together. But their kids could only stay a few nights. She reached out and suggested Jon and I go up the last part of the week and join them. I was so excited!
On the flight, I noticed movement in a carrier under the seats next to us. A sweet little doggy was in there! We didn't hear a peep the whole flight!
We haven't seen Brad in years! It was so great to all be together, just laughing and non-stop chatting, like old times. I forgot how much I enjoy Brad! Ha! We kept saying how great it was to have the time to get ALL caught up on every single little thing. Ahhhh.... we needed this!
The next day we walked around Portland and shopped-shopped-shopped! There is such a good mix of charming new stores and great vintage stores to find all sorts of treasures. Then we went to check out the rose gardens. The area was so charming, we had to do a loop around the neighborhoods. The houses! The yards!
I could stroll charming neighborhoods all day long.
From there we headed to Multnomah falls. Jen and I have a photo of us standing in front of this from 30 years ago when we came here to visit my dear friend, Season.
It's a gorgeous lodge!
The Portland airport is really great. I snapped this pic of women aviators and sent it to my CRU, knowing they would appreciate!
