Mom's Birthday and Portland

Today we took my Mom to Portland to celebrate her birthday.



One of her New Year's Resolution was to visit Voodoo Donuts.



So we were going to surprise her.  'Were' is the keyword here.  Someone let the cat out of the bag.  But that's ok it was still fun.  Laura and her two wee ones traveled up with me.  While Dennis and Mary traveled with my mom and dad.


We had lunch at Old Town Pizza, stood in line for Voodoo Donuts and walked around waterfront park.

 We saw no ghosts while we were at Old Town Pizza.

Dennis and Mary showed off their dancing movies while we waited in line for Voodoo Donuts.



And on another note, I find it funny that the wee ones will rather pretend that they are asleep than to have their picture taken.
