Home Again February 2010

This February, we were able to travel back to Denver to hang with the family. It had only been six months since we left for Alaska but we wanted Ryan and his twin sister Holland to celebrate their birthdays together. (The family secretly thought that Ryan and I were coming home to announce that we were pregnant.) Sorry for the disappointment everyone, it was still really great to see you!

The air was crisp and the sun was out. It was a perfect day for a walk around the Denver Zoo.
A & M are so big, and smart, we missed the heck out of these two.

Unfortunately we did not take too many pictures while we were visiting Denver. We were too busy talking, eating, and catching up with family and friends. After a fabulous week catching up with our loved ones we took a long layover in Portland, Oregon. A perk to living in Alaska is the ability to have a layover in either Seattle or Portland. We decided that Portland was a good choice since we had never seen the city.
We were pleasantly surprised to see green again! At the end of February, Portland was just beginning spring. It was a nice break to see life again before returning to frozen snow banks.
Off to Alaska, we headed back to the Portland Airport after a nice walking afternoon in a great city. Can you spot us in the reflection!
