Fishing and more fishing

Scott has had fishing on the brain a lot lately and here are the photos to prove it.  Two weekends ago he was on the Deschutes River with friends camping and fishing (I stayed home to avoid the wind, rain and cold).

This past Saturday we enjoyed the rare sunny day here in Portland by actually driving two hours out of town to fish at Harriet Lake for the day.  It was fun to get our raft out of the garage and for me to row around while Scott fished.  He even let me fish a bit and was the captain of the raft.  Thank goodness we went on Saturday too because Sunday brought showers and temperatures back down to the 50s.  Where is spring?

Here I am carefully getting my fish out of the net, I have had a few flop over the edge on me in the past.

Ta da!

Scott's last cast before rowing back to shore at the end of the day landed him a native brown trout!

Now we are back to the work week and Scott is in Panama City, Panama for the week and I am in good ole' Portland holding down the fort.  Bump pictures to come soon!

Switzerland - More than just mountains

For those of you who have visited Switzerland or even lived there, this will make you smile.

14 Weeks and Counting...

When we first learned our news, the baby was only the size of an apple seed

By week nine it was a green olive

And we got to see it for the first time and hear the healthy heart beat

And here we are at week fourteen with a little lemon.  Baby B's anticipated arrival is early October!

Hello Sunshine!

Have you heard the news?  The sun is shining in Portland!  Spring finally feels like it has sprung and it has helped me get out of the funk that has been caused by record breaking continuous days of rain and gray skies.  I promise to start updating this blog more and I promise to get outside and take more photos!  Cheers to a new season and to sun!
