Portland Day Two

Ashton planned a fun day for us on Friday. We woke up and had breakfast with Peyton (she's soooo cute!!) and then headed over to Ashton's sister in-laws yard to see if there were any baby deer. Jade had told us the night before he had seen some so we had our fingers crossed that they would still be there, and they were!! After we saw the baby deer we went to the museum OMSI, it had lots of stuff to keep us entertained. They had earthquake simulators, light refraction displays, and so many other fun things. We went to the physics lab and the chemistry lab, which are surprisingly much more fun than the physics and chem labs from college classes. OMSI is right on the river, so we went out on the dock and enjoyed the beautiful sunshine. After playing around at OMSI we took P home for a nap and while she napped Ash and I oiled up and laid out and read our books.

Everday I was there was absolutely gorgeous and warm!! After Peyton woke up from her nap we headed up to the Zoo. Our first exhibit we went to see was Africa, it just confirmed my desire to save up to pick Kaid up from his mission, the animals were so pretty!! We had a blast looking at all the different animals and hearing Peyton talk about the "baby animals" she called everyone a baby, it was the cutest thing ever!! After we were done at the zoo we were SOOO tired; Ash had a babysitter coming a little later, so we called her and told her to come even later because we needed a nap. We tried to have Peyton nap with us, but she would not have it, so she went in her room for quiet time while Ashton and I were dead to the world until the both our phones rang (Abby, the babysitter's mom and Ry) luckily they called to wake us up, or who knows when we would have got up.

After the babysitter got there we got ready and went to dinner at PFChangs, it was so yummy! We were going to go to a movie but missed the first time and then decided shopping would be more satisfying than a movie, and we were right. We both found a few things we could not live without and went home full and happy. We definitely slept well that night...

Dinner at PDChangs...delicious.
Napping polar bear, love him!
