Springtime in Corvallis

Ashlee and I drove to Corvallis this morning. I am happy to report, I do not feel sick. I really think that Cold Eeze is amazing, and I don't think I've come down with much of a cold since I've started using it (if I remember to take it). I was a bit slow this morning, running late and driving two blocks past Ashlee's house, as she watched. But then we were off. We stopped briefly in at the water lab, then went to the French bakery. It did not disappoint. I had a raspberry tart and Ashlee had a ham and Swiss croissant. Everything I've ever had there tastes so fresh and like it's made with the highest quality everything.


Then it was off to the lambing barn. Since it was a sunny day, I actually got a few pictures that weren't blurry. I did manage to narrowly miss a birth, for I think the 4th year in a row. I didn't even know any of them were in labor. We came back as the baby was being carried away to be numbered and tended to. Next year is my year...

Climbing on the highest thing around. You can see the lamb's dried up umbilical cord.

We then stopped by the OSU lab to hang out with Wendy for a bit. I have secured a summer job there! So that was great news. We went downtown for some Vietnamese baguettes, which were super good as well. Then to gelato for birthday cake gelato. I was so excited, it is by far my favorite flavor there. Ashlee also fell in love with it.


One of my favorite things...when the crocus come up through the grass in two places in Corvallis. I just think it looks so magical.


This baby was pushing for that milk to drop. I'm glad human babies don't do this. I love their little wiggly tails. Adorable.




Tomorrow I am going to yoga, and I'm excited to feel better after!
