Celebrating and Holidaying

Bryon insisted that he didn't want a big party for his birthday, so we abandoned traditional 30th birthday ideas and decided to take a trip away for the weekend instead.  This worked out well since his birthday was on a Saturday and our anniversary was the next day...therefore killing two birds with one stone :)  We contemplated going to the Oregon coast, but instead decided to go somewhere that would guarantee us lots of sunshine - Bend, OR (also known as Bryon's dream town).
Here's a little look at our low-key, outdoorsy and lovely weekend.  Although not pictured, we did go out for a birthday dinner with friends in Bend as well.  Fun times!
Kai and I also surprised Bryon with a "30 before 30" list for his birthday - 30 things that he/we had to complete in the 2 weeks before he turned 30.  I think we succeeded in completing all but one of the items on the list.  Not bad!

Checking off the list...Item #13: "Hike in the Columbia Gorge"



Item #19:  "Eat at Pine State Biscuits"

Apparently it was hard work completing all of the activities on daddy's list. 

Not on the list, but fun nonetheless..."Hike to a  Waterfall by Mt. Hood"
