Le Happy in my belly.

Last night we went to a wonderful little creperie called Le Happy with Brian, Tricia and Kobie. The food was fantastic, and we had a great time getting to know our fellow Portland transplants.

After dinner we walked to a few art galleries for First Thursday festivities. At the Elizabeth Leach Gallery, we saw one of Richard Notkin's famous teapots. Portland seems to have a very vibrant art scene, and being at these galleries made us reminisce about our many nights spent at the Harrison Center in Indianapolis, and how special our original Kyle Ragsdale pieces are to us.


We haven't confirmed with Kyle, but are fairly certain we know all of the folks represented in this piece. BTW, this isn't one of ours, but we love it anyway.

Today we are having lunch with a former Weber Shandwick colleague who moved to Portland a few years ago from Minneapolis. Tomorrow we are getting together with Stacey Osburn (my new boss/old boss) and her family for the opening weekend of the Saturday Market. Sunday we are getting together with some Redeemer-ites that are visiting Portland -- Michael and Liz Kaufman. What a small world.

In these first few weeks, we are so thankful to be spending time with and getting to know people. Human interaction is so crucial to my attitude, to my outlook on life!
