Housing trip to Portland

While Mitch and I flew to Portland to find a house for our move, our great friends the Allreds watched the kids for us. All 3 kids (plus their 2 boys!). They are saints. I think this photo about sums it up:

And some more from their time with our friends:

Is Jess a saint or what?!  Bundled up and going out with all 5 ages 5 and under.

Henry and Andy - the cutest tiny friends.

Genevieve loves loves Jess so much. Everytime Emerson would go play at Tanner's house Genevieve would ask to see Jess. Jess had such a special bond with Vieve (and I'm so grateful amidst all the BOY things happening in Vieve's world ;)

You know you are BFFs with someone when you watch shows like this together ;)

Face-timing the kids while we were gone ;)

Our trip in Portland was a blast! It was actually pretty cold there that weekend (but we internally smirked at the city going crazy over the 20 degree temps... that's a spring holiday in Minnesota, hehe).

Bridge City!

Ah, I love this place! My favorite drive up the 26.

Lovejoy Bakery ;)

Loved moving near the Palmers!

 

Mt. Hood, Mt. Adams, and Mt. St. Helens!

 

So many fun friends in Oregon!

 

Loved our cute Portland house!
