Spring Already?

It has been pretty warm in our area for the past week. Up in Brightwood it has actually been warmer than Portland because of a temperature inversion. So, the higher in elevation the warmer the temperature. Not only has it been a little bit warmer than normal it has also been sunny. We have been taking advantage of all the nice weather and getting out and about. This past Wednesday, Meadow and I met our nephews, niece and my sister in law at the zoo. It was really fun for the cousins to get together and we also wanted to celebrate Parker's birthday. He just turned 10! It is so amazing that I have known him since he was 2. He is definitely growing into a little man. Well, as you can tell in this picture he is almost as tall as me. We had a really fun day watching all the animals. They were pretty busy as well, probably enjoying the nice weather like us.

This lion was taking in some sun through the window.

The baby elephant stayed right by her mom the whole time. She is only four months old.

The whole crew

Meadow taking a bath later that day. I think her eyes look gorgeous in this picture. I had her hair in a nice mohawk, but her hair is getting so long it fell over.

More to come, including our fun adventures on the mountain this weekend.
