End of the year adventure drive!

Don't worry, and this point we weren't driving.

At the last minute we decided to drive up to Portland, but instead
of taking I-5 we decided to drive all the way to Tillamock (spelling?)
and from there drive to Portland. Yes it was a four hour drive and
yes it was tiring, but it was very fun!

We stopped at a shell station near Hebo so cait could use
the restroom and i could get some coffee! (they had none!)

This was the drink i ended up buying, it was some energy drink/
coffee mix. Tasted very bad.

I'm not really sure what was going on here, somehow i got caught
in the picture.

I look mad, but don't worry i'm not! we set the camera up on the
dash and this is what we got! I think this picture was taken right after
we left Tillimock

As we were driving over the coastal range we hit about 1500ft and look, we found snow!
There was quite a bit of it actually, probably around 1-2 feet.

How magical!

A new Elephant was born recently at the Zoo. Named Lucy?


Merry Merry Christmas!

Skamania Lodge 12/10/12

This is a view from Skamania Lodge in Washington.
This was a little treat from Caitlin for after finals :) 

View from our room! The man at the front desk upgraded our room!

Sam! Why are you taking my picture!

A picture of Caitlin and I at an expensive breakfast the morning after,
that, honestly wasn't the best. But still good.

Another view from our table at breakfast.


Love it!

Robe picture right before our pool excursion.

Sitting by the fire, what great faces!

:)

More amazing faces :)

We had some time to kill so we made a quick stop to Multnomah
falls before checking into our room.

Caitlin's new apartment 12/1/12

This is a picture from inside Caitlin's new apartment which is just right down the street
from where I live right now. It's a very nice five bedroom townhouse that she gets all to
herself...for now. As few furniture, it was a very long and tiring day renting a moving truck and
moving all her stuff from Portland, where we had to pick up a couch (which still smells) and from
there go to her old apartment and pack up the rest of her things and finally go to monmouth,
where we only took her bed in and set it up and went to bed.

11/27/12 Yeasty Beasty Trivia Night

Can you see Caitlin??
 This was a fun night. Over the passed few weeks Caitlin and I have been going to Yeasty Beasty's trivia night every Tuesday night. This pizza place has also been our favorite place to eat over the last few months as well.
We didn't win that night, but when they we're raffling off the rest of the prizes this is what i won! A freaking awesome growler!
Thank you Caitlin for all your yelling and excitement.

11/23/12 Portland Christmas Tree lighting

Oh man this was an adventure. We made it to the lighting just in time, and on top of that it was raining like mad!
Caitlin's first time seeing the tree lighting!
