Goodness

Ann, Brody, Mike and Emerson came down for our Lil' Miric celebration and we made the most out of their short visit, though we were bummed that Tanya couldn't make it. There are good and bad things about having a job, no? We wandered around the St. Johns neighborhood of Portland, hung out at a cool coffee shop, climbed on a fun play structure, then met some of Mike and Tanya's good friends for dinner.

Marnie, Scott and "Baby" Foster, who used to live in Spokane but just moved to the Portland area from Texas, joined us at a local brewery for some great food.

And Em provided the entertainment. She danced in the aisle, made faces and did every cute thing she knows to make Foster smile, and she was quite successful.


The next day, the out-of-town Conklins headed north after church and I got to experience another lovely shower, this time with the wonderful women of Hillsboro UMC. And then we had a whole bunch of friends over for dinner that night. It was a packed weekend, but a great one!
