Rose Gardens!

So, i'm a little behind on bloggin because we are having just sooo much fun!! and the blogspot was taking forever and I got tired of constantly loading photos and then it would cancel out... SO continuing from the Engagement pics... We went to the rose gardens to take more pics of Erinn and Dustin... It was soo hot but beautiful! I think Dustin was wearing out by this point! what a trooper!
Here's the girls photo shoot!! We couldn't let Dustin and Erinn just make out in front of the camera all day and not get some camera time ourselves!




The cute couple!
Gorgeous roses!


We really liked this rose!!!

Engagement pics!!!






Kari and I wanted to see Portland in a different light... meaning take us to fun places and we will take engagement pics of Dustin and Erinn!!! Here are some of our favorite pics!!! I thought we did pretty good! The question of the day..."I wonder if people think we are real, professional photographers?" Erinn and Dustin... so hot right now!!!! The last pic Kari let go of the tree!! HAHAHA... more to come tomorrow!

Portland Farmers Market!

This morning we went to the Portland's Farmer's market!!! Kari and I were so excited to go to an actual market!! We thought we would be like "You've got Mail!" when they go to the market everyday and get fresh flowers and stuff.... It was alot of fun!!!! Erinn, Dustin, and Kari tasting some beer and showing off our free beer bags that have become our purses for the weekend!!!
Kari so gracefully spitting out the pit of a cherry!!

I thought this sign was funny and pretty much summed up the theme of the market!!!
This is Kari hesitating before she tastes Dustin's coffee... When in Stump City, do what the Oregonians do!
Here's Kari picking cherries as her first purchase of the Market... We were Market Virgins!! that's at least what she told the guy selling us the cherries!!!
Here's two pics of me trying my FIRST CHERRY EVER!!! YEP! I have never tried a cherry! I tried a little bit then ate a whole one! I was a little nervous about the seed and what I was supposed to do with it but I survived and actually enjoyed the cherry!!!

Ok SO this picture above has a story... SO we saw that strawberry and it had a whole where you put your face in it... I was like Erinn take a picture of us in the strawberry...the problem was there were 3 five year olds in front of us and taking forever...so Erinn said Let's GO and we were bummed that we couldn't take the pic...see Kari's pouty lip!!!




So you will see there is a guy dressed as a pirate roaming around the market!! Not trying to sell anything at all just roaming around..picking out food to bring back to the ship! So we posed with him behind us and gave our best ARRRGH and hook!!!
Behind Kari is a protest line...well I guess that weren't protesting but they were PROMOTING to STAND up for something... they chose RECYCLING... I thought it was interesting that most of them looked embarrassed or awkward to be there... Kari was a little confused as she threw her bio-degradable paper in the trash instead of the appropriate recycling bin!



Looking at houses!!!

Yesterday I forgot to post a blog... We went driving around Portland to see the City and Dustin and Erinn took us through this gorgeous neighborhood with fun old houses!!! Kari was in charge of taking pics... this is what we got!!! Here's a nice house!
This is the view that these people have!! AMAZING!!!!
MOM! I grabbed a flyer for you!!! This one is going for $1.2 mil!!!

Umm... this is Kari trying to take a pic of a beautiful house!!!

Checkin Out Portland!

So Here are some pics of us just checking out Portland! We went through China town and downtown I guess... We had just finished eating dinner at a place called Henry's.. It was really good!



JUST DO IT!!!!

Today we met Dustin for lunch at the Nike Campus! It was fun to see the "playground" he "works" at! :) Unfortuantely he had to leave us a little early for a meeting that involved frisbee golf!
Here's us running... cuz that's what you have to do at Nike! of course we will have flip-flops on!
Soo... we went to eat at the Mia Hamm buliding... she's the girl soccer player that ripped her shirt off when she won the world cup or olympics or some intermural soccer game...well after ripping her shirt off she became famous and Nike named the cafeteria after her :) Kari got it in her head that she too could have a building named after her at the Nike campus if she ripped her shirt off... or at least a shoe designed after her!
Here's the cute couple!!!!
AWWW MAN... they didn't give me a building!!! Oh well!

WE ARE HERE!!!


We made it to Portland!!! YEAH!!! Erinn picked us up at 12:30am Portalnd time and we headed to her apartment and of course had "girl talk" till 2:30! SO we didn't have an early morning this morning! It's been great to see Erinn and her new "home" aka Portland! :)
