We went on our one and only camping trip of the year in August...on the one weekend it decides to RAIN! Thankfully it cleared up during the day and it turned out to be a pretty fun trip.
We stayed at Fort Stevens State Park in Astoria. I hadn't been since I was just a kid and I can't believe how many events and activities they now offer...kayaking, bike tours, paddle boats, and, of course, the actual Forts!
What a nice little escape from the world. Jesse and I share our best moments on these quiet trips alone...I hope we'll always find time for these.Later in the summer, our favorite couple, Danae and Christian, invited us on an evening cruise on the Portland Spirit. There were plenty of drinks and live music, but it was the quality time with friends that made it most fun :)
On September 19th we celebrated our 1 year anniversary with a romantic dinner at the Melting Pot. The food was delish, but never-ending! (Whatever the occasion, wear your stretchy-pants people!) We had planned to follow dinner with a movie, but we had literally stuffed ourselves sick...so we went straight home and passed out.
It is so pretty there!!! I can't wait till we get to come back and stay for a while. But we are flying from here on out!
