More of Sunny Portland

Grammie and Natalie in the Portland sunshine

OK, I've had several requests for the belly picture, so here it is. We have a little less than 9 weeks left to go now!
We hit a huge Jazz festival in Portland with Ipa (my dad), and Natalie found it very stimulating. Actually, I couldn't get her to nap before we left, and she crashed there.
Here is one shot of the festival, which is days long and attracts thousands of people. It's a fundraiser for the Oregon Food Bank, and they said that day they raised over 350,000 pounds of food (you had to bring cans to get it) and more than $54,000. There were several stages going at once, but my personal favorite entertainment was a boat captain walking around with his fake and bake tan in a zebra stripe THONG speedo. Lots of people just park their boats along the shore to listen all day, and he had his boat "The Easy" parked right in front. It was hysterical. He had long flowing blond hair, maybe a relative of Fabio. Ah, the joys of people watching in the city.


Here is Natalie after she woke up being tickled by Ipa.

You kept so busy, you'll need to nap for a few weeks before baby boy comes along. Thanks for the pictures and updates.

Great pictures. Looks like you guys had a fun time. Rest up this week as we leave for a girls weekend in four days. Cant wait. And again thanks for the wine, I will pop the cork when little Beckett joins the family.

I'm a good friend of Jill's and knew Kyle when he was younger (I groomed at the Farmacy). I always enjoy reading about your family; it's so refreshing!
