    OMSI

    We love OMSI – Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. It has great
    activities for all ages. I was surprised when I realized our previous
    favorite area of the museum was filled with babies and toddlers. My
    girls looked like giants compared to all the young kids in the
    Scientific Playground. It hit me that my little girls have grown up so
    we headed to the “big kid” section. We had the best time doing
    chemistry experiments, designing flying objects, perfecting sailboat
    building and experiencing a simulated earthquake. We had to miss
    school to come here but I think we did a pretty good job experiencing
    lots of new things that day.

    We had the whole pool, hot tub and sauna to ourselves at the Embassy
    Suites in Portland. We used all three.

  • After party

    After party

    To get into the Corlaine after party each individual needed a special
    key. They had scenes from the movie set up including props and puppets
    that people could touch and interact with. After seeing all the
    details behind the movie Monti totally understood why it took Laika 4
    years to make the movie.

  • Coraline

    Joe and Monti headed out to the Coraline movie world premiere in Portland. Joe was offered tickets by his customer – Laika – who created the movie. It was Monti’s first opportunity to walk the red carpet. If I know her it won’t be her last time.
