Pinhole Photography

So finals week is over. Thank goodness. It was actually my last finals week in high school ever because seniors take finals during regular classes for the second semester. I took photo 2 this past semester and bought a pinhole camera during it. Here are some of the photos I took.

Once Upon Year 2010

Jessica Poff was married to Brian Francom yesterday in the Portland Temple. They had their reception in the Octagonal Barn at the Road House on Cornell. It was beautiful. The Poff family asked me to take some pictures at the reception so I thought I would share a few here!

Baby, It’s Cold Outside

So the other day, meaning yesterday, I had a doctors appointment. Once I was home I decided I didn’t want to go to AP Psych in the middle of the period so I stayed home to wait until Seminary would start. My friend Martha Davidson, who I am pretty sure is one of two people that read this blog, created a group on facebook to be involved in photo challenges. The first one was “Cold.” We are suppose to interpret the idea however we want and then share our photos. I went outside to take some pictures of the cold. Which wasn’t hard, due to the fact is was 15 degrees outside! This whole week I am pretty sure the temperature hasn’t risen above 20 degrees which is abnormal for Oregon. If we had some moisture we  would have a lot of snow. But of course, we don’t. It is clear, sunny, beautiful and cold! So I thought I would post some of the pictures I took for the challenge.

My life to do list

(So I started this blog a few days ago but got stuck because I couldn't actually think of things I wanted to do. Lame I know! But I thought I would post it with my wimpy little list.)
Last Sunday in church one of the talks had a story in it about Kayaking and that is one my list of things to do before I die. Which leads to this blog. These things do not include the obvious like get married, have a family and have an awesome job.

My to do list for life:
(no particular order)
-Fly first class. Somewhere. Anywhere.

(I couldn't decide which one looked fancier!)

-Kayak.
-Rock Climb on real rocks.
-Get into college.
-Get a facial and massage. Actually I want a full on day at a spa!
I am liking this spa.
-Travel outside of the U.S.
-Go to an island besides Hawaii.
-I always wanted to go to the Atlantis Resort. Ever since the Mary-Kate and Ashley movie came out where they went there.

Well this is all for now.

Sick Sunday

Currently, I am eating ham and eggs and drinking juice. My nose is plugged as well as a sore throat. Yup, I have a cold. I hope it doesn't stay for long because I have too much to do and no time to be sick. At OGA right now there are a ton of teachers who are sick and when all the teachers are sick there is no one to sub for your classes.

I haven't blogged in a while so I think I will post some pictures of homecoming. I went with Trevor Hudson to homecoming. My group was: Paul Cayton & Alexis Wood, Grant Fry & Kara Taylor, Patrick Kramer & Beth Calderwood. It was a fun night. We actually didn't go to Westview's dance but to a homecoming dance that the church was having. We went out to eat at Standfords, to the dance and then laser tagging! We did laser tag in our dresses and the boys in their tuxes. It was James Bond style. My mom and Sister Poff did a great job on adding sleeves to my dress! I got compliments on it all night.







I am going to go make some hot chocolate. Happy Sunday!
