My Portland Adventure

I returned last night from my adventure to Portland, Oregon. I had the opportunity to spend five days with my BEST FRIEND and her two adorable children. We had a great time, playing with the kids and gabbing non-stop about anything and everything. It was really great.

Between rain, wind and cold weather we dashed from store to store and spent a lot of time in her cute place.

We went to the rose garden near the zoo.





We ate at Red Robin and we even saw Red Robin.

We enjoyed the "magic" of Zach seeing Santa Claus for the first time at the mall.

We ate a delicious dinner at Papa Haydn's. It was fabulous! And of course, we enjoyed a dessert that was "divine." We did a little boutique shopping in a really cute district in Portland.





We played in the snow!!!!! (For a few minutes!)

We laughed, we cried, we talked and just enjoyed being together.

I had a great time with Tara and her family. She is a great mother and an inspiration to me. I am grateful for our friendship.
