weekend in review.

This weekend felt like a long weekend, which is always nice...

Bennett and I hung out on the hammock:

 Bennett went to the Children's museum with his friends Lucy and Pearl.

He especially loved playing the bucket drums:

(his name Bennett Tabor means "blessed drummer"...how cool would it be if he actually became a drummer?!)

 He also did some shopping in their little market:

(Chris didn't approve of his coffee choice)

 He played with the giant lite brite:

(he had crazy hair all day, but I didn't bother to fix it for some reason)

 Thursday for date night Chris and I went to the Cornelius Pass McMenamins.

They have tons of outdoor seating that is pretty much in a forest lit up with strands of lights.

I could spend so much time out there:

Friday night we walked up to the park to swing before bed and some nice old ladies invited us into the community garden and let Bennett pick a bunch of their fruits and veggies:

(Proud of his onions. The little stinker always closes his eyes on purpose when I ask him to smile for a picture.) 

His bounty:

 Saturday morning snuggles while Chris was on a run:

Chris' awesome brother (who helped build the nursery) came to help install windows in/put up the new door.

(we finally got rid of the original door which was a hollow-core without a deadbolt...yes this house pretty much had an interior door for the front door for 60 years...that's safe right?)

How awesome do these windows look from Crestview Doors?!:

Bennett went with my mom to her company picnic and came back with Cookie Monster and Elmo painted on his face: 

 Sunday morning we made zucchini bread pancakes:

 And Chris' dad came over to help cut down the fallen apple tree limb:

 And also helped redo some of the siding:

 We finally got our front light fixture:

(The house isn't painted yet, I was just holding the light up against the swatch we painted to get the full effect. Me likey.)

(Imagine this with a red door next to it...pretty sweet huh?)

And that was our weekend.

Happy Wednesday Friends!
