This is clearly photo-mania week. We have gone on so many adventures both at the apartment and further afield that the Little Bear is probably quite ready for some serious naps. Tobias came back early from Vipassana this week which ended up being a very lovely thing because we got to spend much quality time together gallivanting around to places like the Oregon Coast and the Sellwood neighborhood.
The apartment also is making great strides and as you can see, we've got the kitchen all painted up and looking pristine in white.
We ALSO have the GRAND COUCH which was a fortuitous run of destiny with The Salvation Army. Guess how much for that monster of style and wonder? 300.00. And why? Because we bought a bag of 5.00 coffee and were awarded a 50% off coupon for any one item in the store. Even the Dane couldn't scorn that kind of sweet deal :)
We've started placing furniture and hanging paintings and opening the lid of the piano so it's really starting to LOOK like people are living here.
Jack the dog has also decided that this is a livable space and has planted himself nicely on the softest points of the carpet. Jack is no one's fool.
Along with our domestic progress, I took Tobi to the beach this week! My favorite beach on the Oregon Coast to be precise. Cannon Beach, home of Haystack Rock, The Goonies, and an old man artist who paints mystical and imagination filled pictures of all the magical creatures and stories that make this area sweet. Tobias and Jack were more than happy to run around sniffing the air and delighting in the gorgeous light.
Jack has a mind of his own and was only too happy to give Tobi some good lessons in parenting and non-attachment to the behavior of his dogs and children.
Bear and I were more than happy to capture everything on film as we all continued down the beach as the sunset over the horizon.
We did manage to find a crazy mirror in town and it actually made me look a little more or less pregnant....the jury is still out on that one!
