Sharing in the LOVE in Portland

Our first stop on our year long adventure was in a city we all love- Portland, Oregon. It's a city that is notorious for being "weird" and that suits us just fine. We love the vibe here and consequently have visited many times over the past 5 years since I met Susie and Judy at a cooking class In Oaxaca, Mexico during our last big adventure. 

 Attending the awesome wedding today of Susie and John got me thinking about the power of choice and how just one decision can change the entire vector of your life- positive or negative. By choosing to open myself to a new experience and take a cooking class in Oaxaca I met these two great women who became fast friends. Susie and Judy have opened their lives to our family on many occasions and today when Susie got married to John, the man of her dreams, we were reunited once again to celebrate. We feel very lucky to be included in the intimate group that Susie calls her friends and to watch this awesome couple start their new lives together. 

       The last time our family will look so snazzy    

                        for quite some time!

                 The three Amigas are reunited once again

             Who doesn't love a great wedding cupcake?

                              Congratulations, Susie and John!!

We have 362 days left in this great journey. I wonder where our choices will take us and who else we 

will meet?
