We started my Birthday the night before with a gift from Logan's parents. A giftcard to Meriwether's in Portland. We had never been there before but fell in love instantly. It was so charming and the food was fresh and delicious! It became an instant favorite for us and we can't wait to go back!! My Mom offered to watch my boys for the day. So I wanted to do something that would be difficult to do with them. So we headed East on 84..... |

Our first stop was downtown Troutdale. Last fall I noticed there was a cute little downtown area just up from the outlets. I'd been wanting to check it out since then... so for my Birthday I decided to cross it off my to do list! I LOVED it. As many know, I'm a shopper. So discovering a new fun place to shop is like finding gold for me! I fell in LOVE with 'The General store.' It had a little bit of everything. Home decor, candy, toys and food. We had the yummiest lunch. Also, we wandered into the basement area and found the cutest vintage decor for every season! It was like I'd died and gone to heaven!
I have never seen so many awesome Halloween decorations in one place! After a little shopping and a yummy lunch we headed to Multnomah Falls and hiked to the top!

and of course Logan had to stop by the Snack Bar afterwards for some Pizza and Ice Cream.
We ended the day perfectly with my parents and boys at my Mom's house. She made my favorite chocolate cake and we sat outside in the sun. This may have been my best birthday yet!
