Merci, Emily!

Here are the pictures from last weekend. It was so great to see a familiar face and even better that it was Emily:) Emily (for those of you who don't know) is a dear friend from my early high school days. She was one of my first friends after moving to Colorado and I continue to be blessed by her friendship. We have been separated for so long because she decided to attend college in Seattle, but are now reunited (kinda) and both residing in the Northwest. She is super amazing and Brandon and I were rejuvenated by her visit.

We went to the Farmers' Market on Saturday in downtown Portland and picked out some yummy fresh ingredients to make a great meal that evening. Who knew that veggies could be so exciting?!

We also took her to see the remaining blooms at the Rose Garden. They are jumping for joy!

I love this picture because it totally encompasses Emily's excitement over the aromas filling the air:)Emily wore us out...

Those darn paparazzi followed us everywhere...
