Happy Birthday Mom!

Today is my mom's birthday! Happy Birthday Mom!! I love you very much and am excited to celebrate this special day with you!
Our weekend was really nice. For one thing, the weather was beautiful! It's about time we get some nice weather. It was 75 and sunny clear skys Fri, Sat, and Sun! Pretty much perfect.
Friday night Trav and I layed low. We knew Sat was going to be very full, and we didn't want to be worn out! So we watched some movies and went to bed at a decent hour. It was a nice, relaxing evening. We spent some time on the back porch laying in the porch swing enjoying the sunshine!
Saturday we woke up nice and early, got ready, and headed to my parents. We packed some snacks, printed off a map to several wineries from Salem to Portland, and loaded everyone and everything into the car. We headed to the first winery at 11am! Nice and early! We had a great time. The weather was perfect for a country drive. There were SO many vineyards on our drive. It was a beautiful drive.
We arrived at the Portland City Grill at 6, and got a great window seat in the piano bar. We had martini's and enjoyed the view until a little after 7 when we were seated. Dinner was wonderful!!! I got black cod on a bed of rice with Japanese sauces on it and woked veggies. It was SO good! My brother and dad got huge prawns with mashed potatoes and asparagus, my mom got duck, and Trav got crab cakes with mashed potatoes and asparagus. We headed home at about 9. It was a great day!
Sunday we got up and took care of all our chores and errands before heading to Trav's parents to celebrate Father's Day with his dad. We had bbq'd steaks for dinner. He seemed to like the shirt we got him! It was not an easy one to find!!
Now it's back to work for another week! I can't wait till Friday!!
