Day two, post two.

Last weekend we went camping with a few friends.
Totally thought it was going to be a disaster: it was pouring down rain, I didn't fully pack, and we were going to a random site with a lot of dirt bikers and 4wheelers (aka redneck land).

However, it was soo much fun! As soon as we got unpacked the rain let up. We were in the trees, next to a river, and far removed from any hooting/hollering/music blaring/gun shooting. Dex ran around the whole time, came when called (TOTALLY unlike him!), and was such a good pup.

We spent the rest of the night making dinner, eating dinner and talking. By the time we got around to making smores everyone was full. But you know me and sweets, so I ate one anyways:)

The not so fun part:
Sleeping is my least favorite of camping. It seems that no matter what I have a rock lodged in my back and am totally freezing. All night I just can't wait for the morning to come. Argh.

Side note: Dex ran around soo much that when we got home he curled up in ball and didn't move for the next 12 hrs!!! Mike even thought he was dead at one point!

Day two of blogging

So obviously this is going to take more work that I had imagined... Almost 2 weeks later and we are at post 2!

Two weeks ago we went on a fun, small hike/walk up to the rose garden.

I love it in northwest Portland. Every time we drive around there I want to move:) The houses up there are huge and amazing, overlooking the city.

However, due to crowds, no pictures of the roses or the view. Haha, go figure.

Day one and strawberries!!!

My new lovely friend Stacy helped me set up a blog (to be fair Mike started it about a year ago.. but neither of us how much follow through)!!! Thankfully Stacy gets things done.
So here is day one!
Here are pics of our berry adventure this weekend.

I love Sauvies Island. I am such a child about picking berries too, I can never leave.. always afraid that I leaving a fabulous red berry behind!
Needless to say, we have WAY to many berries!
