S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Night!
On Saturday, we headed over to Nic and Kim's to check out their new house and hang out. We were having a super nice time when lo and behold, Tracy and Trevor came over.... As the case seems to be with this six-some, shenanigans ensued...
The boys:
The floozies girls:
The dance offs begin....
Kim's shoes...
John vs. Trevor:
I think they are freestyling this part...
Duet.
I think Kim won that one...
also, this happened. and so did this.

Adventure: Snowshoeing!
Thanks to another fabulous suggestion by Groupon, we woke up Friday morning to start our snowshoe excursion. We were picked up downtown by a big ol' van and headed out to the gorge...
We stopped to enjoy some of the beautiful scenery without the usual crowds of people that tend to congregate on a weekend day.
Multnomah Falls, as it always is, but I like it in black and white.
I have to admit, I usually never want to stop here because the people and parking are crazy, but we almost had it to ourselves that morning.
Don't jump, John!
We also stopped at the Columbia Gorge Hotel. We love this spot because years ago, John married two of our friends there (to each other, he doesn't have another family) and we have fond memories of the wedding weekend.
Once we got to the top of the mountain, we had lunch inside the giant lodge. I love the huge snowdrifts outside.
Then, we strapped on our shoes and hit the trail!
Thankfully, the wind died down once we got in the trees. It was beautiful!
We started out going downhill, which was super fun.
Uphill was pretty intense in places...
...especially the final stretch back to the lodge.
but we were rewarded with delicious beers. victory.

Fashion Friday: Thursday Edition!
You know when you are off a day and spend Thursday thinking it's Friday and then you're all bummed when you wake up on Friday and realize that it's not Saturday? Well don't let today's Fashion Friday trick you! It's still only Thursday! I am going to be out on an adventure tomorrow and will not be on the internets so I'm posting my week's fashion today. I started off the week with purple and black. I have to admit that I really like wearing purple tights.
I have recently found myself in love with these old rhinestone earrings of my grandma's. I paired the ear-blings (ugh, sorry) with an old rhinestone pin my mom used to wear to dance competitions. I love wearing pins as necklaces. The ruler doesn't really add much value to the outfit, but matched perfectly so I set it on my desk for the day.
The next day, I simply reversed the look! Black top and bottom, with the splash of hot pink in the middle! This skirt is pretty darn girlie for me (hot pink, a bow, a little high waisted...) but I really like it. I loved this outfit. I felt like a very sophisticated secretary. I rocked rhinestones with this as well, but chose these old re-made pink ones.
