Last weekend I made a quick trip up to Portland/Hood River for Abbie's baby shower.  Her little guy is due in June and although she's had several showers, we needed one in Portland with her girlfriends.  Andrea hosted at her beautiful home and went all out.  It really was a lovely afternoon with lots of La Grande girls.  The weather in Portland and the Hood River valley was incredible.  Rarely do you get days as gorgeous as the ones we had:  mid 80's, clear skies and amazing views of Mt. Hood, Mt. Adams, Mt. St. Helens...  Almost makes you want to move there.

The primary purpose of the weekend was the shower.  So Friday night and Saturday were spent prepping and celebrating.  I did get to finally eat at Pok Pok on Saturday night.  Best chicken wings EVER.   Never had those at a Thai restaurant before...  Sunday was super low key and we did a little exploring in anticipation of the wedding celebration weekend in August/September.  Then it was time to return home to my cute husband.  As always, I loved the time with my family and I'm looking forward to the couple of days we'll see them again in July.
