{this has become one our favorites stops in Portland. The winery is 5 mins from my aunt’s house and super quaint and cute. It’s the perfect way to end the week and enjoy a nice Pinot (open every Sunday)}

We’re finally back from our trip to Portland and I’m excited to share a couple more photos with you from the past week. We made the most out of the nearly-everyday-rainy weather with dinner at Departure in downtown Portland (this is such a cool spot), a walk along the Willamette Falls Locks, large margaritas at Ixtapa, picking berries from a family garden, and cheese and wine at Oswego Hills Winery. I have a feeling all of the eating, drinking, wineries, shopping, and playing will catch up to me this week … but it was all very worth it. I love coming back from a week off of work and the everyday routine feeling inspired and eager to get back in the swing of things. Hope you had a wonderful weekend. I’m off to tackle the inbox, Happy Tuesday!
