Non-Stop Before School

In our 2 weeks that we have been in Portland we have been going 24/7. Running errands, putting the house together, getting ready for school and the million other things that go along with moving!!... So again not enough time to blog, but I am trying to catch up on the blog.
Chase's mom and sister spent the first week here with us. It was so fun to have them around because it still seemed like we were on vacation. While they were here we went to the Dahlia Festival, and saw the prettiest flowers! We also went on my favorite hike so far. It had the coolest waterfall, and Chase and I want to go back to fish there. Here are a few pictures from the Dahlia Festival.

Just one of many Beautiful Flowers

One of our favorites.


Our next adventure was a little trip up Seattle to see my grandparents, and to see the Utah State girls soccer team play a couple games. We had such a fun time seeing both the grandparents and the girls from the team. Unfortunately, I didn't get any photos of the girls, but here are some from Gammie and Pompo's house and Pike Place Market.
It was Chase's first time to Seattle so we had to go to Pike Place!

We watched the guys toss the fish back and forth.

Can't get enough

We of course took the ferry to Gammie and Pompo's

Nice to visit again

We had a really fun time visiting Gammie and Pompo. It was nice to take a break from all the running around we have done in Portland. Hopefully it won't be too long before we head back to Whidbey Island. Thanks to Gammie and Pompo for letting us stay with them for the weekend!
