A Day Downtown

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

We recently headed to downtown Portland for some Spring Festivities, which included an Easter Egg hung (of sorts) in the Pearl District. The trip nicely coincided with the arrival of my new camera that Nick got me for my birthday, and thusly, here are some of our favorite shots of the day.

 

Can I play in this dirt?

Mmmmmm. 'Nough Said.

A little post about our Valentines Day love in the Winters House.

Last week, Mylie and I made cookies to deliver to friends. We tried a new icing technique from Annie’s Eats, and I thought they turned out fabulous! We also used the cookie recipe from Nick’s cousin, Brandy, and it is definitely our new favorite.

Yesterday, after church, Nick and Mylie made some homemade Valentines for me (Nick had gotten his present the night before after the kids went to bed…. Get your mind out of the gutter people! It was a box of See’s Chocolates that we didn’t want to have to share with the kiddos). Nick made a cute little heart pocket-envelope and the two of them filled it with things they love about me. Some of my favorites: “Your sense of humor” (Nick), and “Food” (Mylie). But the best by far was the one that said, “I love your body.” And no, you gutter dwellers, that was not from Nick. That was from little Mylie!
