Flower Baby

This past weekend brought us to Portland OR, City of Roses, for Natasha and Tom's rose-tastic (and beautiful!) wedding, where Eva was the Baby of Honor (more commonly known as the Flower Girl) in a red wagon and a basket of flowers - most of which did NOT end up in her mouth.
We then visited the Portland Rose Garden, Japanese Garden (both of which Eva slept through) and Zoo, which Eva woke up for and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of - in particular when she got to touch her very first goat! (The frantic dancing and waving was almost too cute for spectators to bear!) Was it because she found a kindred spirit in one who loves eating random inedible objects almost as much as she does?



At the wedding brunch: "Excuse me! I'd like to make a toast, please!"

Wearing white at another girl's wedding? The nerve!


Is someone a little too jet-lagged to party at the reception?


Eva makes a new friend at the Oregon Zoo.



Giving her papa an appropriately disapproving look for making this picture happen (also at the Zoo).

Loved the pix of the Baby of Honor. Of course she wore white....she is such a pure little spirit. Especially liked the pix from the zen garden. Love you all.

Oops...forgot to tell you we loved the hat especially.

We couldn't have picked a better flower girl/Baby of Honor. And it's a good thing we rehearsed the pulling-of-the-wagon too because Jeff did a fantastic job!
