Mateo and Oregon



The rest doesn't matter...haha. Well, the husband and i journeyed out to Oregon to visit Jp's best man and the fam. We went up during the perfect weekend with perfect weather, pretty trees, and yummy food. If you don't know Jp and I, we love food, and it was good. Especially the wil atlantic salmon...so good! Anyways... Mateo is so cute! He would give us our wake up call by jumping in our bed





After getting ready for the day, Jp and i fell in love with the Zaporteza's tree. This tree was awesome!!! I don't know if the leaves are still there, but this tree was really cool. The color was so cool and really big, but not only was there 1 of them, but 2! That was really hard to see, but really cool!





They have a huge front yard and since it is a corner house, it was full of trees and event here backyard was so nice... minus the 2 dead plants Tiff killed..haha... But really, Their house is beautiful and it looks like a house house.... Fully and nicely decorated, clean and really broken in... it really is a beautiful house...haha... Jp and I were taking notes aside and thinking of how we can decorate our house cause really, it looks like it's out of a catalog, they probably don't think so, but it is... I didn't post pictures of the interior cause you have to go to oregon to see it...hehe





After an awsome lunch that I wished I remembered the name of it, but when I find out, I'll be sure to blog on it, cause I had the best and only Salmon Hash I have ever had... So the fam brought us to Portland and we did a lot of walking and some sight seeing... Well... Jp went sight seeing thanks to Albert... but that's a whole other post...haha





Day two, we got our wake up call from Mateo... gotta love it, and this time, Albert fed him before we left to go shopping at Nike... cause when your at Nike, your there for at least 2 to 3 hours... and I didn't realize this, so Mateo wasn't hungry anymore, but Jp and I were starving.



Since we were starving, we went to McMenamins. This restaurant is located in an old school. Cool concept, but really weird...



We had to walk down these halls to get to the restaurant... scary! I was even afraid to go to the bathroom by myself...so i had the hubby escort me...it was super scary...



But did Mateo care....not at all.... He was havin a blast!





The cool thing is that Tiff is learning to use her camera, so she was capturing some cool shots while we were there...



Even after eating all that food, and all that playing, Albert let Mateo fly a little bit...



Okay, this last picture is here for a reason... This hand is famous!!! The magic comes from these fingers =)



Even though this was a short trip, I had so much fun and it was so beautiful. It is nothing like California. They have huge old trees and we have tall palm trees... The weather is different, but the town has so much character. I can't wait to go there again and spend more than two days with them. Not to mention the guest room's matress. So comfortable! Thanks Zaporteza's for letting us visit. We will be back sooner than later... see you guys for Christmas! haha... See you in Vegas..haha
