feb. 19

we headed to portland today for a little weekend getaway.  it was a very easy 3 hour drive from seattle, and it was a beautiful day.  i did some research online before we left, and i read about a boulder climbing gym that i knew kevin and gavin would love.  we thought we'd give the kids lots of new experiences so we took a bus to the boulder gym.  that part was easy, and the boys had a blast.  gavin is a natural climber and knew exactly what to do.  he climbed up the wall over and over again with some help from dad.  kevin was thrilled.  brooke, on the other hand, was not such a big fan of climbing, but she was still a good sport.  afterwards we headed back to the bus stop but after waiting quite a while in the cold, we decided to hail a cab back to the hotel.  then we caught a pedicab (a cyclist pulling a trailer) to dinner and the light rail home.  i'm not sure if gavin was more thrilled with our modes of transportation or the climbing gym :)  it was a fun night.
