Gigi arrived this week to spend a few days with the family in San Diego. Harrison was thrilled to have Gigi join us in our daily activities, including a few trips to the park, a cold day spent at the nursery picking out trees,
checking out airplanes on our walk,
and just relaxing around the house.
And then back to the Northwest: so lush, green and lovely... refreshingly foodie and eclectic. Although this felt like a whirlwind experience, a few favorite moments from our time in Portland and Hood River included a gorgeous hike along the river where I spotted this ground cover after a morning rain...
A dinner with my favorite brother at Pok Pok (this thai street dessert however sent me over the edge)...
And of course we had to make a trip or two to St. Honore patisserie where Harrison and the rest of us indulged in some greatly missed croissants and other delightful treats.
After a few days in Portland visiting family, we made our way up to Hood River where we rented an adorable house dangerously close to our favorite coffee shop (Ten Speed). I was able to savor a daily latte made to perfection...Aaahhhh....pure indulgence. Harrison loved our daily walks to coffee, getting bites of breakfast sandwiches and checking out the roasting equipment.
It was sooo fun having you here. Squeeze Harrison's cheeks for me!
