Bring It, Yao

We just want to give a special shout out to our Portland Trailblazers who've come a long way this season! Go Blazers! Beat Houston!

Spring Color, Part 1: Awesome Blossoms

A couple weeks ago we went down to Waterfront Park downtown to check out the gorgeous cherry blossom trees on the riverside promenade. There were lots of people and families (and their dogs) enjoying the sun and waving at the boats on the Willamette River. The trees are not in bloom for very long, but while they're here they're quite a sight, like cotton candy with branches ;-) Click here for the rest of the photos. (And, yes, that is a harness on Mia. She is too fast for us on foot right now. Without it we would likely have to fish her out of the river.)




Hace dos semanas fuimos a un parque en el centro que esta al lado del Rio Willamette donde hay muchos cerezos. Durante esta epoca son espectaculares. Fue el primer fin de semana lindo de la primavera y habian muchas familias gozando el dia. Haz "click" aqui para el resto de las fotos.

Sunny Days

It's 70 degrees today! Spring is finally here. Our camellia bushes are in full bloom and the tulips and daffodils are coming up all around our neighborhood. (I'll post photos of that soon.) Yesterday was pretty, too (though a little chilier), and Mia had a blast kicking around the soccer ball in the back yard and chasing Mona. Today she "helped" Keenan with some yard work. Next week it's back to cooler weather, but in the meantime we're taking advantage of the sun.


Hoy la temperatura subio a los 70(F) grados! La primavera a llegado finalmente. Nuestros arboles de camelia ya estan llenos de flores y tambien hay tulipanes en nuestro vecindario (fotos de eso pronto). Ayer tambien fue un dia muy bonito, un poquito mas frio. Mia se divirtio pateando la pelota de futbol y jugando con Mona en el patio. Hoy le "ayudo" a Keenan con la jardineria. La semana que viene vuelve el frio pero por ahora vamos a disfrutar el sol!
