For a birthday outing on the day that she became an official adult, Bailey asked the family to go to Portland to the International Rose Test Garden and the Portland Japanese Garden, and then to her favorite Mexican food place on Alberta Street. It was a lovely early summer day!
What a beauty this girl is, inside and out. Oh, and the roses were beautiful, too.
Aubrey and Joseph were patient with all the perusing.
Well, pretty patient. It looks like Joseph was getting a little irritated.
More shots of my amazingly awesome kiddos.
And then on to the Japanese Gardens, which are so picturesque and serene.
And then to Alberta Street, where we took a few fun birthday shots along the way.
And enjoyed some scrumptious and authentic Mexican cuisine!
We finished the outing with a stop at La Petite Patisserie on Alberta Street, where we got amazing French pastries and goodies.
Rewind now to the way the day began, with breakfast in bed: pancakes with butter no syrup, "smoothie in a bowl" with granola, and blueberries.
Opening a few gifts before getting ready.
These are from her Daddy, her hiking partner. Walking sticks. Which Bailey thought were a little "old ladyish", but which Dan insists will be helpful for the next big hike.
At the end of the day she opened a few more gifts, including some super exciting kitchen stuff for the new college student. She was thrilled to have her own set of Demarle cookwear and Magic Bullet!
Yay for Bailey - a lovely adult human being!
