Beach G i r l s ;P

First week of summer is almost over....Me and Brittney decided to chill at the beach on Wednesday, and it was awesome. We climbed (tripped over, cut toes on) some rocks, tried to walk without stopping straight into the ocean (didn't work) and attempted to tan (but burned). It was a BLAST!

Throwing splash balls at each other, and at my sister Libby:

Drinking rootbeer...aren't we cute?

Look, an airplane! :P

Last day of school!!!

Yes! Finally its summer vacation!!! Our family decided to celebrate in some interesting ways, like blowing up fireworks in our driveway...well me and my dad did while everyone else watched. It was really fun, we had some that spun and shot in all different directions:

Megan and Brittney

I found these two pictures of me and brittney so im sticking them on here:

This is at my sister Kelsey's 12th birthday party, we are experimenting with the present I gave her, little bottles of colored hair dye. So we were dying all her friends hair. I like this picture because when i saw it i was like "wow my hair is wicked long!". it makes me sad that i cut it. Well, its still long, just not AS long.

And this is a picture of me and brittney working on Kevin's graduation present, which i wont explain because we haven't given it to him yet, but it looks amazing and I can't wait to give it to him!

Portland Museum of Art

For my final for art class I had to visit and write a report on the Portland Museum of art. So I went a couple weeks ago with my dad and we took a picture of this painting. Can anyone answer this question: "Was the person in this painting supposed to be a man or a women?"

Its the Concert Band!

Featuring Ian on clarinet and Megan and Brittney on Bass Clarinet....

Da Family Partay

Yes, I turned 15 TWICE. Well i had to have a party with all the cousins and whatnot. I decorated the cake myself (even though I've heard that you are not supposed to do that). It was that yummylicious kind of cake with the colored sprinkles on the inside, here is my awesome frosting job....ok so the blue came out REALLY fast...

Meg's Birthday!

Yeah, thats right, Megan's 15!!! And to celebrate I brought a bunch-o friends to the beach! Unfortunately Kevin, Jen and Des had to leave early, for some reason kevin had to go to his own graduation party (whatever!) so that left me, Brittney, Tom, Ian and the crazy Mitchell family to enjoy the beach! Here are some pics:

We spent a lot of our time at the beach building a ginormous dribble-castle! In this picture Tom looks really excited, he's trying to dig a tunnel through the whole castle.

The two people you probably dont recognize as either Meg, Britt, Ian or Tom would be my sisters Kelsey (in blue) and Libby (the smaller one).

In this picture me and Tom are finishing the tunnel, we both have our arms up to the elbows shoved in the middle of the castle digging until: "hey, I felt your hand! we're through!" Yeah that's me and Tom.


More dibbling....

Andrea was having a lot of fun!

We all decided to run and jump in the freezing water...except Brittney, but don't worry she unintentionally fell in.



Here is Tom not wanting to get his picture taken. For some reason he thought that the little shovel would shield him...

Tom wasn't lying when he said that his swim suit was falling down...one more inch and...
(he's gonna kill me for this)

CAKE TIME! it took a while to get all the candles lit, but i blew them ALL out

And of course presents! This would be me holding my present from Jen, a rock that says "SMILE" because apparently whenever she sees me she cant help laughing...i don't know if thats good or bad...hehe im just kidding, I love you Jen!!

Opening Tom's present....

Wearing Tom's present!

First-Aid! *obnoixious noise-maker*

Don't worry, my arm really isn't broken. This is a picture from when the young women did first-aid certification for camp. I just wanted to show off my awesome fedora that my friend Tommy gave me for my birthday!

Ol' Smokey

This is the my family's attempt at a bonfire, I never saw any flames, but there was a lot of smoke! Anyways I thought this picture was cool... Hey! You like our willow tree? Its getting pretty big....

The same day we roasted marshmallows in our new, um, fire thingy.

Temple Trip

These are some pictures from the youth temple trip that we went on recently. I liked a lot of these pictures because they captured a lot of funny faces from people ;)

(l to r) Ian, Brittney, Megan, Chris...i cant spell the rest of him name...
Brittney looks like the last she wants to do is get her picture taken, and Ian just looks confused...as usual...

I thought this picture was funny because it was taken right after Ian and Brittney had been making fun of me, so they were laughing and I was angry, I think I'm even making a fist in the picture. ;) In the back left to right: my sister Kelsey and my cousin Hannah, Hannah D. , Laura, Johnny and Audrey.

In this one I'm like "are you really taking ANOTHER picture?" and of course Audrey and Brittney are looking very photogenic.

I put this picture here just for the quality of Josh, Brittney and Audrey's expressions....
I think I could black-mail Josh with this picture.

Of course
!mi padre loco!

Laura and Brittney...awww, they're so cute!

Here's the gang at McDs after the temple trip...

I <3 WACOM!

Hey everyone, this is Megan! So it was my birthday on the 19th and I got a WACOM tablet! (used to draw on the computer) This is the first picture I drew with it, I used an online drawing website called mangatutorials...Anyways this is a picture of Kurt (Nightcrawler) from the X-men, hope you like it!

Spontanious Mini-golf!

Hmmmm, what to do on a Friday afternoon....? How about minigolf?! A couple weeks ago me, Brittney, Kevin, Jen and Joey (Jen and Tom's younger brother) did just that. We live off spontaneity. ;) I like using big words....anyhoo here's some pics from the experience:

This would be Joey, the 10 year-old that beat us all at mini-golf. Hey, I was a close second!

Brittney and Kevin....

Hehehe this picture is really only funny for those of us who went. Let's just say that Kevin was being mean to Brittney (she's the green one, kevin the yellow) (and in case your wondering, the pink is Jen)

Pictures of Kevin and Jen getting ready to go/on the skyswing. 100 ft high drop!! woot woot!!

You might have to click on this one to see it better,
Kevin was giving us a double -up and yells "Take a picture!!"

Here is the video of Kevin and Jen on the skyswing. The people talking in the background would be me, Brittney and Joey. You might have to turn your head to watch the video, and if you listen closely you can hear Jen scream when her and Kevin free fall:

actually the video will be coming soon....

Memorial Day Parade

Here is a video of the High School band marching in the Memorial Day Parade. It went pretty good considering we are a concert band and not a marching band. Personally, I like playing the bass clarinet better while sitting in a chair. Actually low woodwinds are not supposed to be in marching band....anyways, I'm in the line nearest to the camera, fifth in line i think, the one with the really big black instrument. Brittney is in that same line, if you can see her, and Ian is somewhere in the back with his wimpy little clarinet. We would have pictures of us but my parents gave the camera to my seven-year-old sister, who didn't take any pics of the band. But she did take a picture of every single fire truck in the parade (about 10 or so) if that counts for anything.
