Ahh, coming away from a weekend with warm weather just makes me smile. I don't realize how much we Oregonians are sun-deprived until we see the sun for a few days. This past week has been gorgeous - everything is in full bloom and colors are plentiful.
We enjoyed the weekend happenings! Friday night started off with a bang - Jeff made dinner for me because Orange Chicken is one of his specialties and for some reason I just can't do it the same as he can. Just a relaxing evening at the Meakins household.
Saturday I worked and Jeff went snowboarding - probably one of the last days of the ski season. He and Pete made the last day an experience...reveled in their manhood, even setting up a mini BBQ in the parking lot like rugged campers who wouldn't dare eat in the lodge.
Later - a night out on the town: First, drinks at M-Bar (just a teeny tiny little beer/wine-only bar on NW 21st), then a truly FABulous dinner at Mingo (also on NW 21st)...it was one of those nights that couldn't be beat...amazing service, wonderful food, great company, warm weather...good times. Of course the night just couldn't end without a stop-in at another local favorite for some chocolate fondue. Needless to say, we were stuffed. :)
Today we have been soaking up the sun, enjoyed a great service at Solid Rock, went for a walk on the river in our favorite Lake Oswego park (old stomping grounds), got coffee at Peet's, did some yard work (well, Jeff did), and are now relaxing at home in front of the Blazer play-off game (well, not me, as obviously, I am blogging). We had a couple more very interested prospects for the house - but as we've learned - we don't get our hopes up. :)
Wishing everyone a fabulous week~
