Weekends, Lately.

This weekend consisted of:
A haircut. No bangs. After all the hype, I know. Next time!
Long walks around the city.
Our first trip to the Farmer's Market this year.
Cappucinos, fresh-baked olive bread and puppy cuddles at Lovejoy Bakers with my mom and sis.
Dinner at Russell Street BBQ {oh.em.gee. so good.}
Nike Hoop Summit
Lots of Friday Night Lights. We're hooked.
A puppy-free Sunday cause our boy was at the vet (Henry lost his manhood if you know what I mean...).
Sunday brunch at Tasty n Sons. I'm kind of obsessed with this place, aside from the horrendous 45 min. wait.
Dinner at the in-laws. Always fun. Always leave feeling so blessed to have such amazing family.

Hope your weekend was amazing! Hoping for a stress-free work week :)

  1. Aw, Frenchie or Boston? We have a Boston mix, and I can't WAIT to take him to get snipped. He's such a humper already at only 4 months!

  5. yum! What did you order at Tasty n Son's? I looked at their menu and it looks delicious but daunting:)
    We went to Besaw's this weekend...I did a review on my blog if you want to check it out! I totally relate to the 45 minute wait.. same story there, but worth it:)

  6. look like a lot of fun and activity took place! How exciting. Glad to see you guys had fun. AND so sad when our doggies have to be DE-MANNED. I feel like Jude didn't know what who he was for a few days afterwards... hehe

  7. Ohyygahh, these pictures! If there is anyone who makes me more excited about moving back to Portland than my family, it is YOU! These pictures of Portland are so amazing -- I cannot wait to be there.

    Also, Russel Street BBQ - I. Know. Top five favorite restaurants in Portland. IMO. '
    We'll have to go! Hope you're well and ready to catch up after I graduate!

  8. Gorgeous pictures, as usual! FYI, my husband and I are also hooked on Friday Night Lights - best show on television, in my opinion!

  9. MayLove - He's a Frenchie/Boston mix!

    Mandee - We were overwhelmed by the menu, too! We got the Sautéed Spinach with sunny side up egg (sounds boring but it was SO GOOD), Fried Egg & Cheddar Biscuit with fried chicken, Auntie Paula's French Toast, and the biscuit/gravy they had on special. My one complaint was I was the Fried Egg & Cheddar biscuit came with gravy- it was a tad dry. We are fans of Pine State, and we thought their biscuit sandwich was better. But the atmosphere is fun and the food is delicious. I highly recommend it! We love Besaw's, too! I'm also a benedict fan :) Have you tried the crab benedict at Veritable Quandry? You will die. It is crazy good!

  31. This is definitely a topic that closes to me so I’m happy that you wrote about it. I’m also happy that you did the subject some justice. Not only do you know a great deal about it, you know how to present in a way that people will want to read more. I’m so happy to know someone like you exists on the web
