More Fun in Portland

We have needed new flooring in our house for a while now. We had really cheap builder grade carpet all throughout the house including in eating area and where our sliding door comes in from the backyard. After 5 years, with two kids and a big black lab, plus living in a very rainy climate, you can imagine what our floors looked like. Anyway, to make a long story short, we decided to go with 18 inch porcelain tile for the high traffic areas, and replace all of the carpet and pad with much bettter quality of both. Since our house was torn apart pretty badly, the kids, dog, and I packed up and went to Portland so that we were out of the way. We a wonderful time with Grandma and Grandpa and even got to see Uncle Chad. It always feels like a mini vacation when we go there. Here are a few of the fun things we did..
