Happy Friday

Hello dear friends and Happy Friday to you!  What are your weekend plans?  I am heading to Seattle for the weekend and I am so excited!  Two of my best friends will be in Seattle at the same time and I am really looking forward to seeing them.

The above picture is a picture of a street in the historic Mississippi District in Portland.  I have been splitting my weeks between Corvallis and Portland since Jonathan is working in Portland for the month.  The program rents a cute apartment in the Mississippi neighborhood for the residents to live in while they are working in Portland.

I had never been to the Mississippi District before but I highly recommend it if you ever find yourself in Portland.  It is a charming neighborhood on the other side of the river from downtown and it is loaded with fun restaurants and bars (and a really yummy ice cream shop!).

The other night Jonathan and I went on a fun date to this restaurant called Equinox in the Mississippi neighborhood.  We walked to it from the apartment and the sun was setting just as we were getting to the restaurant.  It was a beautiful sight.  And, the restaurant was fabulous too!  We sat in their charming garden patio where there were pretty white lights and red umbrellas.  (You can see part of it in the picture)

I hope you have a fabulous Friday and weekend!
