Back when Rachel and I were in high school together, we both did a lot of acting. For awhile, I thought it was what I wanted to do with my life, and maybe she went through that same process. But for whatever reason, we’re some of the old drama kids who aren’t so much drama kids anymore.

I dragged poor Rachel to downtown Portland’s waterfront park on a freeeeeeeezing cold day in February for these photos, which we joked she could use for her acting portfolio, if she ever went back to it. Rachel’s too busy working like three jobs and taking Portland by storm these days for that…

As always, though, Rachel was such a good sport and I think her pictures came out so cute! Then again, though, how could they not be cute with her in them?
