We started celebrating our anniversary yesterday. After work we left Seth with my parents and we went downtown PDX where we had reservations for the evening in deluxe accommodations at The Westin Hotel thanks to my brother Cosmin. We had a good dinner of Thai food at one of our favorite Thai places in the Pearl District and then we headed to another great restaurant for some good desert.

| hazelnut mousse torte... I didnt' think of taking the photo until after the first couple of bites... this cake was beyond good so my focus was on the explosion my taste buds were experiencing. |
After we checked in and checked out our room we got a phone call from the hotel concierge wanting to ask if they could bring up a little gift from the hotel. When it arrived both Chris and I were pleasantly surprised and touched. I had told the lady I made our reservations with that we were staying there for our 11 year anniversary. I guess they wanted to make it special for us. And they sure did.

We decided to go ahead and ck out around 11 and head out for some good lunch! But before leaving the hotel I wanted to get some parting shots.

After lunch we headed home to pick up our little monkey Seth and then we went to coffee with my family and of course I'm gonna include some shots of my little chunky monkey.
