The KDC let loose in PDX

(KDC = Kappa Dinner Club)
Well, not exactly sure we let loose, seeing as how 3 of us are pregnant, however we did have a blast eating, shopping, and pampering our way through Portland! Us 8 moms (and mom-to-be) somehow managed to get away from our hectic daily lives after 3+ mos of planning and while we did plan to rest and relax, we still stayed up gabbing until the AM both nights.

While some of the crew were lucky enough to enjoy the fine cocktails of the city's fabulous restaurants and our hotel's swanky lounge, I managed to drink enough mocktails, club soda, and Inka Kola (Peruvian soda that tastes like banana) to last me a lifetime.

Our private room in the wine cellar of Veritable Quandary...
Girls of Room 843: Jodi, Bridget, Allison, me
(I highly recommend staying at The Nines, a very cool new hotel downtown with rooms decorated in Tiffany Blue)...Girls of Room 849: Courtney, Karissa, Kate, SamarAhhh...our favorite pasttime - pedicures...It wouldn't be a Kappa pedicure without Allison's champagne pom cocktail... Yes, we did some damage at Nordstrom shoes. The funny thing is that we almost all bought the same shoes after being inspired by Jodi's shoes...
Thanks Allison for hosting us all over for brunch at your darling home!...

Can't wait for the next trip!
(And thanks for letting me steal all of your pics from your blogs)...
