Spring Break in Portland



Forrest, Noah, Noah's friend Kaleb, and I took a quick trip to Portland during our spring break from school. The weather was gorgeous and we enjoyed sitting in the sun downtown in Pioneer Courthouse Square. As you can see Forrest is still supporting the now defunct Seattle Sonics while I am sporting my new Blazer shirt. Noah and Kaleb joined Forrest in wearing their Sonics gear to the Blazer game. The boys loved NikeTown. We spent lots of money on shoes, shorts, shirts, and socks, and they wouldn't validate my parking! How rude!We made a trip to Voodoo Donuts. Very yummy treats, but the exposure of this shop on FoodNetwork creates long lines out the door at any time of day. Mom and Dad were excellent hosts as usual: fixing crepes for breakfast and taking us out for yummy meals. The Blazer game was great, except that they lost. It's been so long since we've been able to attend an NBA game. Forrest and the boys have high hopes that Seattle will get a team again soon.

After our quick trip to Portland, Noah had his wisdom teeth pulled and spent the rest of his spring break recuperating. I got to be the nurse, managing his medications and providing him with ice packs, cold drinks, and soft foods. He has made a full recovery and is make to his usual eating machine self.
