Perfect Weekend (a week late)

My husband and I had three glorious days off together this past holiday weekend. He normally has to work at holiday times, but was able to take all 3 days off. This has not occurred in a long time. It was so nice.

For Valentine's Day, he gifted me with a shopping spree. The boy spoils me rotten! Saturday he bought me some beautiful earrings and a new watch on my "spree". Had some lunch and ended the day with a Strawberry Julius. Mmmmmmm.

Sunday was spent hiking up at Multnomah Falls in the Columbia River Gorge. It was such a beautiful day and Gracie had lots of fun hiking to the top of the falls. Now I feel like I have done 5 million stairs. :)

Here is a view of the falls from the bottom.



And another looking all the way down!



"You can't see me"



Monday we spent cleaning out one of the spare rooms and completely cleaning/organizing the garage. It felt so good to get some real work done around here. And the weather was beautiful! Not really warm, but the sun was out and gave us a sneak peak of spring.

It was so wonderful spending quality time with pup and hubby. Exactly what I needed.

I always love your photos, they're just breathtaking! Gracie is so cute...even though she's invisible.

5 million stairs is pretty good. Now you don't need to exercise for a month. :-)
