First hike of 2011
I'm keeping a promise I made to myself- Be more active in 2011.
This morning we took a short hike over at Windy Hill.
Here's what we saw!
my lil trip to portland:

I just got back from Oregon. I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE it up there. I'm get nostalgic for Oregon as I went to college there waaaay back when.
I met up with a dear friend in Portland before my visit to Eugene and we had a lil food & shopping adventure!
We went to Pine State Biscuits! I've been wanting to go FOREVER.

Your first vacation, Cooper
You are almost 11 months old. Eek! That means we have to get a move on with your birthday party planning! Yikes.

This past weekend was your FIRST OFFICIAL VACATION!
We went to Lake Tahoe with your Nana, Papa & Uncle Ryan.
oh vegas!

This past weekend we went to Las Vegas for a wedding. It was our first time away from Cooper AND our first time to Las Vegas. (thank you mom!)
Such a wonderful trip. Still tired as a result!
People watching was FANTASTIC and the food we ate was killer. Because Casey and I love eating our way through a city, I made sure book some reservations the second our flights were booked.
Here are some of the places we ate:
*Nobhill (took pictures, but the lack of flash made everything so blah! I am NOT going to be that person who is firing a flash in a dark restaurant all night long. It's like being on your cellphone...but worse!)
*Bouchon (Thomas Keller held the key to our hangover cure at Brunch on Sunday)
which included.....
we’re back
The hubby & I spent the past weekend in Vancouver. We ate at some really good places!
Photos to come!
