Remembering Voodoo Doughnuts

[click to enlarge]

So, these pics are a month old, BUT... you and I will both survive. Whew. Glad I got that off my chest.

My "little" brother, Danaan (pronounced Day-nen if anyone is wondering), returned from his LDS mission in Peru in January. I wasn't able to be there to see him arrive back home, so he and my lovely mother booked a trip to come visit the Great Northwest. Clark could hardly contain his excitement on the days before their arrival, constantly asking me if they were coming yet.

My mom spent the day with the little guys while Danaan and I hit downtown. We devoured several donuts from an awesome donut shop called Voodoo Doughnut. Among our mix was a maple bar w/ bacon on top (don't hate until you try it, it's YUM), a Cap'n Crunch donut, a Butterfinger donut, and a gigantic Banana Fritter topped with chocolate, peanut butter, chocolate chips, & peanuts. They even perform weddings at this crazy place. Every girl's dream I'm sure. We also did some shopping, and walked down the Waterfront. [note: pictures were taken, but on my bro's camera - sorry!]

The next day we enjoyed down in Tillamook, hitting the cheese factory, and the beach. It was a gorgeous day, especially for February!

The best part was hanging out with Danaan again. I missed him! He is an incredible uncle. He chased Clark around so much that Clark actually wanted to take a break - which never happens - that kid can go forever! Jack cuddled right up to him to watch movies. He's awesome, handsome, and single if anyone is lookin'... (applicant must also be amazingly awesome, or need not apply).
