The day started off with JD, Jeff, JaNae, Sye, and Jake going to the Portland Temple while Miranda slept in. They got to go down town to see the sites. Some stops included: Waterfront Park, Powell's Book Store, Pioneer Square, and VooDoo Donuts (a first time attendance for JD-I don't eat donuts so the only ones he has had are ones I have brought to him from coworkers that I didn't eat) they are a very famous donut shop with rather unusual names and toppings. Portland has what becomes almost a month long celebration for the Rose Festival, and one of the first things that happens is the Pioneer Square flower art. They put a design on display for about 2 1/2 weeks at which point all the flowers that were used in the art are sold. After the downtown adventures I was able to meet up with the fam and we went to Washington Square Mall to eat dinner, but a stop at the Lego store was a must the picture on this post was what I saw when I walked into the store: three grown little boys looking at a box of Legos. Miranda got to go see a Timbers game with her friend Joe who is playing on one of the reserve teams for the Timbers. We ate at the Cheesecake Factory and it was delicious. It was another busy but fun day.
