Happy 2-Year Anniversary to Us!!!
We spent several glorious days at the beach cabin in Winema to celebrate our anniversary. Rich and Sandy accompanied us, Rach brought Cameron and Sawyer (the boys she nannies) down for one night, and Christopher surprised us with a visit! We enjoyed plenty of beach time, fiery sunsets, ooey-gooey s'mores, watching movies, shopping at the outlets, and an eventful trip to Pacific City (including a dune climb). Isaac and I had the place to ourselves the last two days, and we indulged in side-by-side massages at Salishan Spa, a delicious dinner at Fathoms, and plenty of reminiscing back to our incredible wedding day! Oh, how we love the cabin... =)

Happy Moments Spent with Friends...

On our way to shop for wedding dresses... can't post any other pics, as they contain possible gowns=)

Later that evening we met up with the boys on the waterfront for the Portland Brew Festival

We ran into lots of old buddies, including Ben!
Girls Weekend...
Mom and I joined our lifelong friends, Ruthanne and Robin, for a wonderful weekend retreat to Cannon Beach. We had a fantastic time chatting, shopping, eating, and playing games- even though the mom's were rotten cheaters=) hehe! Can't wait for our next weekend!

Reunion with the Albaugh Clan...
Sandy organized a lovely get together with most of the Albaughs (and former Albaughs) while we were home. We gathered at Janell's and Grandpa's for pizza, cake, ice cream, and great conversation! It was very comforting to spend time with so many loved ones we hadn't seen in months. We were especially thrilled when people kept bringing up that fact they hadn't seen some of the family since Christmas... so happy our distance helped bring everyone together=).

World's cutest flower girl... and now, big sister!

Marshall girls (minus Cheryl)

Girls Night...
Some of the girls gathered together at Chevy's for happy hour and cheery chatter! We had a blast giggling over margaritas and snacks. YAY for girls nights!!!

Rach, Jen and I

Sisters... sisters... =)
Day with the Donaldsons...
We were so excited to spend a day with the world's best neighbors- our dear friends, the Donaldson's. Our adventure started with lunch at Escape from New York Pizza on 23rd, followed by a sunny afternoon at the Washington Park Zoo. We capped off the day with some scrumptious ice cream at Dairy Queen.
Seriously, guys, when are you going to move to Dubai with us? Can't wait to see you at Christmas!

You will be hard pressed to find a cuter little peanut than Kaden! Love him to pieces!!!

Kaden and Dad-O =)


Playing with mom!


So brave with the lorikeets... Heather has encouraged Kaden to channel his inner Dr. Doolittle from day 1, so he is great with animals!

I just couldn't pull my camera away from him=)

Mmmmm....

Chocolate... =)

Roar!!!
Good Tunes...
Christopher had 2 shows while we were home, which we were so excited to attend! He had some really catchy new tunes we are still humming... =)


The "serious" shot... one of the few moments Chris wasn't grinning ear to ear!
Wine Tasting...
Chris and Cheryl took us into the rolling hills of Dundee for a lovely afternoon of wine tasting. We had such a fun time, tasted some fantastic vinos, and took in some incredible Oregon views.

Sweet Scuffy...
We so enjoyed spending snuggly hours with our sweet Scuffy. Nearly 16 years old, thoroughly confused, but just as sweet and loving as ever!
