We had visitors this weekend.
Eric's Mom: Joann.
And 2of his 5 sisters: Lori and Anne Marie.
We did the usual:
The coast, St. Honore's boulangerie, Lake Oswego farmer's market, downtown Portland town, Mother's Bistro.
And we did some new ones too:
Portland Japanese gardens, finding nooks and crannies of upper Portland with the most desirable little homes (only a car full of girls would do such a thing), and discovering Cannon Beach's fresh salt water taffies.
After their visit I couldn't help but be a little jealous that Eric got to grow up with so many great girls in his home.
p.s. Lots of female visitors = Lots of help with kids = free hands that don't know what to do with themselves = really awkward pose by me.

How did you do that to your pictures? They look cool and vintage like you... I hope you know that's a compliment!
St. Honore's Boulangerie is a favorite place of ours. How did you come to find it? Our son Brandon works at Fat Tire Farm ( a bike shop) about a block from there. You have a darling family. I enjoy reading your blog along with all the others in the ward. It's a fun way to connect. :)
