Surfing Oregon

IT was an absolutely B-E-A-utiful weekend and so we decided to hit the Oregon coast for a little sun and surf. We found this great beach and and perfect weather. Tor braved the frigid waters to do a little surfing. He explained later that every time his head went under the water he got an ice cream headache. I prefer to get my ice cream headaches the old fashioned way...

We three at the beach

At the Portland zoo. These little girls really liked Lars, or the next ad for United Colors of Beneton (I thought these were sooo cool in 8th grade).

Lars looking super "fly" in his froggie stuff. Get it?

Happy Birthday to Me!

I turned 30 on September 1st. Yes... that's right, 30. I feel 24 and I think it's because I took this quiz on the Internet a few months ago when I was pregnant and bored and it told me that my REAL age is 24. This is due to the fact that I don't smoke, drink rarely, and I lied and said that I exercise moderately. The computer jiggled its garthump and came up with the arbitrary number of 24. So, I feel 24. I'm glad I'm not 24 however because I'm MUCH happier at 30 then I ever was at 24. I have so much to be grateful for: I have a wonderful husband, two sets of family that I love, a great group of friends I've had FOREVER, and a beautiful baby that just took a big ole poo in my lap and is looking sublimely happy. What more could a girl ask for? Not that I wouldn't accept a few belated gifts...

Tor saying "Hi" from the OR.

Lars looking very "G" in his hoodie.

Our first hike with Lars on the outside. He slept the whole time. Wish Tor would carry me in a pack.

My baby is now very mad that he is still sitting in his poo while I write this blog. Some people are so demanding!
