OREGON BREWERS FESTIVAL

friday, after a quick nap after work we headed downtown to the oregon brewers fest on the waterfront. we met up with a few friends and enjoyed a couple drinks. i'm not much of a beer drinker i prefer wine. but i had a glass of raspberry beer and water melon beer.

after we went to ringlers to grab some food and then to 80s night a lolas room.

AFTER THE WEDDING

...

after the wedding we changed and took a little trip down the boardwalk to the place jason and i got engaged. on fourth of july 2010 jason, cooper, and i got up and drove to the beach. we found a little spot against a building where we sat for a long time waiting for the sun to go down and the fireworks show to start. about halfway through the show jason got up and walked toward the beach to get some pictures and then he came back to show me them (which i thought was really weird because i could see them). there on the camera screen was picture of jason and coop holding signs that said will you marry me. i look over at jason and he is down on one knee with a ring. of course i said yes and you all know the rest.

here's our re-enactment 3 years and 1 day later.
