Zen: An Attempt

One of my favorite spots in Portland is the Japanese Gardens. They're so lush, serene, and just stunning. Noam loves being out in nature and "exploring" so it was a fun outing. 
Granted, a 3.5 year old up past his nap time, on a hot day, after a popsicle makes for an interesting attempt at being zen in such a place! 
And this little guy? When well, he's just too cute to handle!

I'm so happy that you are able to get out to the West & visit. One of these days we will have to meet up.

LOVE this place you visit - I would be in picture heaven there.

Any age up past nap time makes zen a challenge. Just sayin! 😉. Beautiful location and those boys are too cute.
