And here we go - Part 1...

So first off, yes they still develop 35mm film, second even if its been 10 years the film still comes out OK; well maybe I can't say that for sure because my film is only 5 years old... ahhh good old 2005!!! Most of you needn't worry because well, they wasn't anything too embarrassing and really not a whole lot of interesting pictures.  But some good memories nonetheless; and most interesting because its spans activities over 2 states and 4 cities!.  So without further adieu, here are the findings on the camera!

We start our journey in one of my most favorite places EVER!  The Oregon Coast!  

Pretty sure this is from an Institute Choir Trip and this is the view from our Hotel Room.   Love, love, LOVE the Oregon Coast!

And LOVE Canon Beach!   Hello Goonie's Rock!

And just about the worst picture ever, taken at none other than Mo's.  I am pretty sure I can only make out like 3 people in this picture!!!

Stay tuned for parts 2, 3 and 4!!!

What's This? What's This?!

Last week there was a marathon of the show "Hoarders".  Have you seen it?  Its fascinatingly disgusting!     While I am positive I am not anywhere near as bad as the people on that show, I do realize I have a few things in my closets to clean out.  And this is one of them:

I've had this roll for so many years that I honestly don't know whats on it... I am pretty sure its from a time frame of 2002 to 2005.  This isn't the first time I've looked at it and said, I should get that developed.  But today is the first time I will actually walk out the door with it and turn it in.  I just hope it hasn't sat for so long that it is damaged.   I am committing, right here, right now, that whatever is on it, I will share it right here. So if you were associated with me from 2002 to 2005 you are officially warned....

Current Thoughts

Crab Dip is delicious

I confess, I dig marching band
Correction..I love running when the weather is nice
I have yet to find the perfect mascara, any suggestions?
Seriously, anyone want to clean my oven?
For that matter, anyone want to clean my whole house?

Being an Aunt Rocks

A fish story

This is my grandpa...

He's the best fisherman in Ontario... Just ask him!  

This is my Skeptic Husband Adam

He didn't quite believe me when I told him that when you go fishing with Grandpa your pretty much guaranteed to pull in at least a hundred fish.

Here is my Mom enjoying the BEAUTIFUL day

She was the first to catch a fish... on her first cast... before anyone else had gotten their poles in the water

This is my dad

He wont look at me. 

Oh but look!  He caught a fish!

Adam wouldn't smile while holding his catch

Could be whole slew of reasons why.. I'll let you decide.

Here my dad and I are both bringing one in!

Yep, thats the way its done!

And this is how much fish we had after about 10 minutes

Sorry its blurry!  Those darn fish don't like being out of the water!

I love this pole

Yep, I caught my fish with an Ugly Stick!

After a few hours we had enough and went home

Lovely hour long boat ride back out of Owhyee Resevoir

And our whole haul

I think Adam is a believer now!  We filled a whole ice chest, about 150 fish. 

And then the best fisherman in Ontario has to go to work cleaning em up

I am so glad that Adam got to go fishing with my Grandpa!  Thanks so much Grandpa for a fabulous day of fishing!  We love you!

I WON!!!

Are you kidding me???? I actually won a contest I entered on a blog!!!!  Not only that but it was a super cool contest!!   The designer of that cute dress made for my niece, Chelsea over at PinkFig Design was hosting a contest to win some prizes, including patterns.   All I had to do was making comments on her BEAUTIFUL pictures she took on her trip to England & Paris.  How hard is that!  I just had to remember to go on everyday, check the pictures out and comment, and what do you know I actually won!  Not the grandprize winner, but the runner up prizes aren't too shabby!  I will be getting some of her 2010 patterns, including ones that aren't out yet... so that means I have to wait awhile for my prize but thats OK!!!!

Here is the post that showed I won!!
