Gage and I flew to Portland, Oregon for a few days to see my brother Andy and his boys, Coleman and Aedan. They made the move to Portland last year and we've really missed seeing them. It was so much fun to get to see their new place and be a part of their lives for a few days.


Gage enjoyed sitting with Coleman while they watched a nature show on the laptop.


Aedan was thoroughly entertained by my iPhone

Gage really liked Coleman & Aedan's pet rats



Monday night we all went to dinner at McCormick & Schmick's Seafood Restaurant.


Coleman was quite creative and found a new mode of transportation for Gage- the almost 1 year old who refuses to crawl!


No need for a highchair, the sink works great for Gage.
Andy lives in a cool old home with a neat old fashioned kitchen.




On Tuesday night we had fun at the bowling alley watching Andy bowl with his league- "The Logjammers". We must have been good luck for Andy because that night he bowled his personal best!



Coleman and Aedan did a great job keeping Gage entertained






Tuesday was also Mardi Gras so the boys had fun collecting necklaces and crowns.









Both flights went well. Gage and I were lucky enough to have the entire row to ourselves both ways!




It was a lot of fun to go up to Portland to see Andy, Coleman & Aedan. We look forward to our next trip!
