Weekend a la PDX

This city is easy to love. All in one mellow weekend we managed to:
  • Eat out at some amazing restaurants, including Piazza Italia...which we appreciate more now than we did before...it really does feel like a quick trip to Italy (football culture, Italian waiters, and great pasta)

  • W had a nail biter of a season finale soccer match, with his Papa as coach. Our Hood River family drove down to catch the action (thank you thank you). W's game winning goal was not lost on any of us...even if American children's matches do not keep score or have winners (give me a break). 
  • We went to church for the first time in a very very long time and the biscuits tasted better than we remembered! 
  • We took the boat for a late October cruise and ended up waterskiing and swimming (and napping)
Uncle Adam was not afraid of a cold October day...no wetsuit? No problem?

  • We went to the Junie B. Jones musical with dear friends and we were all blown away! (hey JBJ haters, lighten up). 

  • We moved a bunch more stuff into the house - on track to officially move in this week!
  • We caught the last game of the regular season for the Portland Timbers! The kids had been in Timbers camp this week (so much fun) and so they knew so many of the stadium songs and traditions...so fun. If we had to leave the football scene of Europe, it is nice to land in soccer-city-usa.
