July Fun

Here are some fun random pictures from July. The twins are getting so big and Sadie is adjusting well.

Three Months Old

Can't believe these cuties are three months old already...

BRAVE

Took Sadie and her friend Caylee to see Brave today.

The two cuties waiting to get tickets.

Popcorn? Check. Drink? Check. Excitement? Double Check.

After the movie we went and got some ice cream to complete the girls day out.

Lovin' my babies

Mom's big helper!!

Stop Over in Etna

It would not be a completed trip to Etna if we didn't stop at Dotty's! I used to work here in High School and I have very fond memories of this place.

Here is 1/2 a Cattlemen's Sandwich and fries with cheese.  Not pictured a Raspberry milkshake...It was already gone.  haha.

It was a little warmer than the twins were used too so we stripped them down and kept them cool.  I love Hettie's face in this picture...she was actually sound asleep.

Multnomah Falls

One of my most favorite places on earth!

It is so beautiful and peaceful. 

We decided to make the drive out to the falls after our long day in downtown Portland.  We were leaving the next day for Etna and it wouldn't be a complete trip unless we saw the falls.

When Miss Sadie saw the bridge she HAD to make the hike up there!  Even though she was exhausted...as evident in this picture.  But I love this picture because you couldn't pay for a better back drop than this one.

On the trail to the bridge

Taking a quick break for some silliness!

Steve stayed down at the base of the waterfall with the twins so he zoomed in and got a picture of us on the bridge.  Yep that's us all nice and fuzzy but it's us!

I think this is the first and only picture of the two of us this whole vacation so far...shame on me.

I love this man of mine!

Henrietta enjoying the nice cool breeze off the waterfall.

Auggie had been fussy most of the day but when we got here he was instantly at peace.  I can so relate to this kid!

After such a long day Miss Sadie was a good little trooper!

The MAX, Food Carts, Voodoo Doughnuts...Oh my!

After our photo session we hopped on the MAX to go down town to have lunch at the food carts. 

Miss Sadie was excited she was just upset she had to wait for another train.

She loved the MAX and watching everything fly by.

Toward the end of the ride someone got a little tired it was of course nap time but we had too much to do and see to stop for a nap.

This is a little out of order but I had to include it.  This is on the ride back to Gresham. Sadie was exhausted and there were no places to sit. (we caught rush hour) So Cousin Jeff made a seat for her to sit on.

My Foodie!

We have been researching Portland's food carts ever since we found out we were coming up for the wedding.  Mr. Foodie was very excited to try "The Frying Scotsman"'s fish and chips.  And he wasn't disappointed!

We decided to walk over to Powell's Bookstore and we ran into someone who obviously loves Star Wars.  I do too but I'm not sure I'd go this far....ok maybe.

Andrew and Alyssa were able to meet up with us after she got her hair chopped off for boot camp (she reports tomorrow).  Miss Sadie was happy they got to come even if it only was a short visit.

On our way back to the MAX we detoured over to Voodoo Doughnuts!  Oh and I'm so glad we did.

Our score!

And yes I'm completely excited!  Love me some maple bars!

Miss Sadie and her fruit loop doughnut!

I had to post this picture...it was too funny not too. 

Yes this is the famous cock and balls doughnut from Voodoo.  Let's just say this was taken after a very long day!  I was a little punch drunk!  haha.  Now you know my real sense of humor!
