Someday soon, I will get through all of my Seattle/Portland trip pictures. I promise. They won’t keep popping up at the strangest times… like, say, 6 months after I’ve returned to California. I think I even may be able to wrap them all up this week! *fingers crossed*
In the middle of my trip to Seattle in October, I couldn’t stand it anymore and decided to drive down to my beloved Portland, Oregon. I was so glad I went! While I was only there a short while, I was able to visit with some of my favorite people, including my cousin David and his sweet family. I would have loved to hang out with them regardless, but this time was extra special because they recently welcomed little Balin into their world. I asked if I could spend a couple hours with them and photograph them as a new family of four.
As a side note, when I arrived at their home and was looking for the best available light, I went out to the backyard. They apologized that it was so overgrown and started telling me about the home improvement projects they had in store for the space. I had to laugh because it was PERFECT the way it was. The light was magical, everything was green and wild and it was beautiful. I was so glad they hadn’t had a chance to change it yet.Â
