Celebrating spring Portland Style

Earth Day was yesterday, and the weather has been perfect all weekend. Happy weathter. Sun, blue skies, wind, lots of flowers, temps in high 60s, low 70s.

Perfect Sunday today. Tim took Myra to school this morning, leaving us free to lounge and read and drink coffee and just ease into the Sunday. Really nice. We picked her up from school, gave her lunch and then left her at home to nap and flop.

I took Tim to a bunch of neighborhoods he hasn't been to yet: Alberta, Beaumont and Broadway, all in NE. He likes NE as much as I knew he would, especially lower NE. The houses are gorgeous and you are close to a lot of stuff. We are definitely going to look at buying a house or a duplex in that area.

We went to the Lloyd Center Mall (nice stores, lots of trashy people) and Tim used his Oregon tax return and bought a sweet new Nikon digital camera. Really good digital camera. After we put Myra to bed we wandered around the neighborhood taking pictures, and it is so great to see Tim so happy to be taking photos again.

Yesterday, I went with Ava to First Impressions for the first of the store closing sale trips. Got a bunch of new stamps, some cool markers, and just generally had fun. I plan on going back at least for the 75% off sale in two weeks. I was playing with them in my journal tonight and it was a lot of fun.

Watched lots of Gilmore Girls, started watching Buffy, and just generally had a perfect Tim and Kelly weekend.
