After we spent time at the dam and saw fish bigger than a boat, we headed to Portland for some time with family. That wasn't without a stop at one of the area's most famous water falls. Multnomah! It has become a family tradition the last couple years to visit. This time we had daddy!
He graciously carried her up the mountain on his shoulders. By the time we got to the bridge, I was still fresh and thought we needed to make funny faces.
She will so thank me later for all the goofy shots I make her take throughout her life. Fortunately she's totally my child and just does it because.
Unlike years prior, okay year prior, this time we played around in the water. It was ice cold and we couldn't feel out feet.
Fortunately the water was only to her ankles because exactly 10 seconds after this shot, she fell into the water and got soaked. There were tears and as I tried to get her to to the top of the little embankment of pure asphalt, I left some of my toe and half of two toenails. It was the injury that prevented me from walking barefoot on the beach. I'm still a little sad about it.
Fortunately we had dinner with some friends of ours, Phil and Anna. They have three munchkins around Zoe's age. It was play time for her, fellowship for us and they had Band-Aids. It was like a quadruple win!
Thank you Phil and Anna for the great fellowship, the wonderful dinner and the baby cuddles. Next time we're coming for much longer!
