Last weekend we went to "Sand in the City". They brought a ton (well probably lots more) sand to Pioneer Courthouse Square and artists carved giant sandcastles. They were really cool! Ella was enthralled with all the sites and sounds that downtown Portland had to offer.


After the sandcastles we went in search of Voodoo Donut. We'd heard about this iconic Portland donut shop but had never been there and didn't know it's exact location. Conveniently enough we pulled up alongside a Portland Police car at a red light, rolled down the window and asked "do you know where Voodoo Donut is?" He knew the answer right off...of course the cop knew where the donut store was!:) We realized the irony in asking the policeman directions to a donut shop after the fact and busted up and were dying laughing! Jason went in while sleepy Ella and I waited in the car. He said it was a pretty funky place and that no child should go there due to the inappropriately named donuts! We got quite the collection of crazy donuts, fruitloop covered, m&m covered, cookies & cream and of course the voodoo donut himself.
