We started off the day with a brunch and present opening since Sean’s parents were going to have to head to the airport right after Mass.

We had a great day and we are all so proud of Liam.
Since we had family in town, we had to do at least one touristy thing, so we headed to Pittock Mansion. We hadn’t been there before, but it had been on my to do list and I thought the grandparents might like it, too. We went on a nice walk around the grounds and admired all of the beautiful flowers and such. Then we went inside and were lucky enough to be able to go on a tour led by a volunteer. It was so interesting to hear about how the family had lived and I was so impressed with all of the modern amenities they had for that time period.
My mom used to drag me to the fabric store ALL THE TIME when I was little. I would run my fingers through the fabrics and feel how soft they felt against my cheeks and then we would sit down and look at all the pattern catalogs. This trip to the fabric store felt a lot less painful than they did 30 years ago. 😉
These little beauties have taken up residence in the field across from our house. I think I might name them. Any suggestions?
