Something I’ve come to REALLY appreciate about the Portland, OR area is the incredibly beautiful layers of Spring. Certain trees/shrubs will bloom for a couple weeks and then once they’re done another kind will start blooming so as to make up for the sadness of the already-bloomed tree being done completing it’s show. I get […]

We venture down to the Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival every year…. Some years we are blessed with incredible weather, other years it’s surprisingly cold and super windy or massively muddy. Most years it’s windy haha… Last year (2022) was VERY windy and cold, but my kids toughed it out and we had a lot of […]

Camping with two little very active, curious, high energy boys is… quite the adventure! This was our third time tent family camping. We made a few changes, which totally upgraded our experience (borrowed a giant walk-able tent from a friend for Noah and me… it had TWO rooms!) and we camped at our new favorite […]

We ventured to the Land of Magical Flowers, AKA Adelman Peony Farm in Salem for the first time last spring. I’m writing this a couple weeks after going our second time, so stay tuned for more fun pics! haha … There’s easily a million photos in this post so have fun scrolling! I’ve probably hit […]

It was a warm April afternoon in 2019. The traffic was unusually insane, Google Maps re-routed us and added 20 min to the drive and the youngest pooped when we were sitting in traffic, so we had to pull over to change his diaper in a random parking lot in the back of my SUV. […]

It was worth the 45 min one-way-full-of-traffic-drive where my kids were less than pleasant to open the car doors to breathtaking blooming fruit trees in Orchard Park in Hilsboro, OR. It was too close to dinner time, the oldest didn’t comply with my wardrobe suggestions, and the youngest fell in some mud in the middle […]

One good thing about being in a quarantine is we have more time at home. We definitely enjoy being home, but also love adventuring with a splash of spontaneity. I sure miss exploring Portland in the Spring, but being home more has allowed me more freedom and space to grab my camera and document our […]

These are images from our sledding adventures on Mt. Hood last winter (2019). Noah was so little and maybe his snow suit was a taddddd small. Oops. The weather was incredible – almost warm enough that the snow was melting into slushie snow. We sledded to our hearts content. Noah LOVED it haha. They boys […]
