On Being Band Groupies ....

Believe it or not, our little ski excursion did not end the weekend.  After skiing on Saturday, we packed up our stuff and headed out to meet some friends in Portland to watch our friend Jon's band perform Saturday night.  They played at the Douglas Fir, and there were tons of people there - I think it was a sold out show!

Here we are before the show. Eric, Mickey, Stephen, me, and Angela
The Thoughts!
Taking our role as "the groupies" very seriously

Stephen took his role as videographer very seriously too :)

Spring Skiing at Timberline


Stephen has really fond memories of spending time at Timberline Lodge as a kid with his family, so we've always meant to take a trip up there but - in five years of marriage - have never made it.  Finally, this weekend we got to go up there to do some skiing!  Timberline is such an amazing place - so full of history and so cozy and cute!  It feels like stepping back in time...

Conditions were so great on Saturday - the sun was shining, it wasn't too cold, and the mountain was groomed.  It was such a fun day.

Thinking Green - The Luck O'the Irish

St. Patty's Day was on a Tuesday this year ... but that definitely didn't stop us from celebrating.  Kelli, Amanda, Stephen and I celebrated at the house with green champagne and irish beer.  Our night went on way into the wee hours of the morning, with lots of laughing and silliness - so much fun!

Happy Birthday Celia!

We had a delicious brunch at Shenanigans last Sunday in honor of Celia's birthday (it was your 21st, right Celia?).  Had a great time visiting with Miguel and Celia and ate way too much yummy food.
