A perfect day for a parade...

We had really fantastic weather this past weekend and it just so happened that there was a ton of fun stuff going on around the city. I got a little photo crazy too, so here are a few of the pictures I took.

I was trying to take a picture of the beautiful St. Johns bridge and Sophie's balloon blew into the shot. At first I was a little annoyed but I love how this picture turned out!

Awe, angel face..

I love how the trees have clothes on!

Sophie got crafty and made a turtle flag that will be displayed at next years parade.

The finished product.

Oregon Country Fair 2009

Hello! The fair this year was wonderful. We all had a great time. I had been preparing for weeks to sell a few things at the fair but after the last minute trip planning and deciding to go a day early I just didn't have the time to make that happen this year. On the bright side I will have several new things on my Etsy shop in the very near future.
We camped at Quiet Camp this year which was quiet the first night...maybe only due to the rain outside. A really sweet couple camped next to us, they had two little girls who became instant friends with Sophie. They shared their pancakes and cocoa for breakfast, and the mama did Sophie's hair and painted her face for the fair.The perfect camping neighbors really...unlike the loud annoying teenagers on mushrooms on the other side(but that's another story).
We left a day early .....only to avoid a huge rainstorm on Sunday...I heard it was quite the muddy mess. Whew..

I loved the sink at our camp.

The only thing this picture needs is bubbles.

It was a long walk from camp to the gates.

It was the 40th year of the fair!Make way....

This cute lady painted many a boob.

Look, even Jimi Hendrix was there....

This is my favorite costume.

Finally, a little space to run free.
I love this sign....
