BBQ in the country

Yesterday, Tom and I went to an adidas basketball BBQ. It was a gorgeous day, and we ate waaayyy too much food. As you can see from the pics, we're getting great use of the cornhole set, Boom likes giving people shots, and I like holding big babies.









Movie Premiere "The First Day"

Last Saturday, we started the day walking around the east side of Portland in the Hawthorne area. We did some vintage shopping and admired all the crazy cars that come out on nice days. :)





Later, we went to David Garcia's movie premiere of "The First Day". It was Tom's acting debut, and he did pretty well for the 15 seconds he was in the movie. Tom played a bodyguard guy, who dies pretty quickly in the beginning. It was a fun night...I can't wait for the next installment.






Bayside Tigers!

Ohhhh Memorial Day weekend...Tom and I were extremely busy this past weekend with theme parties and BBQs. We started off last Friday by going to a Save by the Bell birthday party. It was Drew's, a.k.a. "Preppy or Zach" birthday, and he also came up with the brilliant idea to revisit one of the best shows of our youth. We started the night with a few drinks at the bar, danced to some great 80's music, and then finished the night with a little karaoke. :)

As you can see from the pic it was extremely hot at Lola's for 80's night. I apologize for the sweaty pits picture. :)

Happy Birthday Drew! We had a blast!

Mothers Day and Claire's Baptism

This past weekend Tom and I went to California for Claire's baptism. We had an amazing weekend playing with Kaitlyn, snuggling with Claire, and eating fabulous food.
Day 1

Since Tom loves pizza almost as much as me, Matt and Erika thought a pizza night was must. At Zelo's they serve deep dish pizzas and it totally hit the spot.


This is a short clip of Kaitlyn singing...she kept singing the same thing and sticking everyone's name at the end. :)

Day 2

Before the baptism Kaitlyn and Tom had time to play a little soccer.

Claire slept through pretty much the entire ceremony. Kaitlyn on the other hand freaked out when they pour water on Claire's head saying things like "What doing to Claire? Claire not okay!" When we made it back to our pew, Kaitlyn turned to me teary-eyed asking, "Claire blessed now? Claire blessed now?"....Adorable.

We were both a little tired after the baptism. :)

Matt was jealous and wanted to wear Claire's bonnet too.

Since it was such a nice day, we decided to spend a little time in the park...

After the park, we did a little video chatting with Big Bob and Loi-Babe...

Day 3

Kaitlyn woke us up on our last day saying, "Adrienne and Tommy sleepy" over and over...it was adorable so I woke up to join Kaitlyn for a little breakfast. As soon as she saw me she said, "Good morning, Adrienne. I have a doughnut!" She was so polite and happy at 7am, I couldn't help but smile at her.

Tom and I were treated to a special breakfast at Julienne's. It was SOOOOO ridiculously good. Above is a pic of Tom's chocolate chip waffles and berries.

We got a chance to do a little shopping. (yay!) After, we went back to the apartment to hang out one last time with the family before our flight to Oregon.


Matt and Erika, we had a great time and are very honored you asked us to be Claire's godparents. I can't wait to see the whole family again in a few months!

Happy Belated Birtday Maria!

Yesterday was Maria's actual bday, but since she left for China last week, we actually celebrated it earlier. Below are pics from her bday party a few weeks ago at Shane and Maria's house.


This cute little girl is named Tru. She is probably the coolest 5 year old I've ever met. As soon as she was introduced to us, she said, "I have a boyfriend. He's 4 and I'm 5. I like him a lot...and... I love him a lot. " She helped me put sprinkles on the cupcakes and after I asked her what she wanted to do...she said, "I don't know...hang out?" So we hung out and played around Maria and Shane's house. :) It's fun to be a kid.

Maria, I know it's a little belated, but I hope you had a fabulous birthday in China! Come home soon...We miss you!

XOXO

Our Trip to Woodburn, OR

Hey Folks! Yesterday, Tom and I took a little day trip to Woodburn, OR to go to the Woodburn Tulip Festival and do a little shopping. We arrived in the afternoon and luckily had fabulous weather to take gorgeous pictures of the beautiful fields. A few hours after we got there it started to pour (grrr!). We took shelter by running from tent to tent seeing all the different crafts and things people made to sell. We finished our day in Woodburn doing a little shopping at the outlets. Despite the rainy weather, we had a great time and really enjoyed the festival and shopping. Below are pics from my camera...if you want to see more photos check out Tom's blog. His blog link is under my Blog List located on the side panel :) Enjoy!

We were stuck in traffic when we saw this lovely bumper sticker.

These are Tom's new unnecessary shoes. As you can see they glow in the dark.
XOXO
