I spent most of my birthday in Seaside where our cross country team was competing in the Three Course Challenge at Camp Rilea. Bruce and I even ran the open race together after all of our runners had raced. However, when I came home, the girls surprised me with streamers, balloons, and Papa Murphy's pizza for dinner. Dadda said the decorations and the chicken-bacon-artichoke pizza was all their idea, and I was super impressed by their thoughtfulness! The following day we continued the celebration with a road trip to the Fruit Loop in our new truck. We stopped at Multnomah Falls for a quick hike, then ate lunch at the Gorge White House. Then we headed to Packer's Orchard for some ice cream and on to Kiyokawa Orchards to pick some apples. Such a fun day!
The girls also picked out some yummy desserts at Rose's Bakery, including my favorite: tiramisu.
After lunch at the Gorge White House, where I bought the last two bottles of their Pear Blueberry Wine.
Look at the size of those apples!
We picked some honey crisp and crimson crisp apples.
