The Classical Chinese Garden

We decided to get out and enjoy the weather this weekend, so we headed to the Classical Chinese Garden. It is located in Portland, right in the city!

so peaceful

The waterfall

A place of tranquility amongst the chaos of the city

winding pathway over the water

hi mom!

uh oh! She'll be walking in no time!

Can't believe there are actually flowers in bloom right now!

The architecture is amazing

Eating Spaghetti

Charlotte loves food. Loves it. So this time we gave her a bowl all to herself...

Some recent pictures

Ten on Ten

So this isn't totally all Charlotte, but I thought I would share. This is a project where you take 10 pictures over ten hours on the tenth of the month. Lots of tens! So here were my ten:
