The Scarecrow

On the highway from Knappa to Astoria,
there's a turn off to go to an Eagle Sanctuary.
On this road is a neighborhood where my aunt walks a few times weekly.
Last Halloween, she saw a scarecrow. She told me how amazing he was and how she wished I could see for myself. When I went to Oregon a few weeks ago, at the being of October, we drove by this particular house a few times in hopes to see the scarecrow. Even on the way to the airport, we hoped to get a peek but, no luck.


One day, the scarecrow was put up and she was
there with her camera so that I could at least see this scarecrow on film.
As she approached, she noticed a full yard of spooky decorations.
As she began to snap some shots, a man then approached her.



The man asked if she'd like a tour. Camera ready, she gladly accepted the offer.
She was able to get these amazing shots.


Next year, I will be in Oregon for Halloween.

The Curbside Prophet

Jason Mraz Concert
On a phone conversation a few weeks ago,
Jared said that he had a surprise for me.
"What is it?" I asked. He insisted that I'd know later,
after he got home from work.
Late that night, before Jared went home, he gave me a hug
and in his hands were two tickets to the Jason Mraz concert!
I was so excited to go see Mr. A-Z!
We had such a fun time at the concert.
The curbside prophet knows how to put on an awesome show..



Jared said I look like Sarah Palin in these glasses.
Sad thing, a co-worker told me that earlier that day! :)
Curtis told me I look like Tina Fey.
Have you seen SNL lately?


When in line to get my overly priced-Yellow Jason Mraz T-shirt, I ran into my friend, Eric. Literally.

"This is Halloween"

The Haunted Village

On Friday, Jared and I went to the
Haunted Village with Cami and Travis.
It was a great Haunted House and unlike any that I've been to!
Haunted Houses.
This is why I love Halloween.
That and.. the costumes, carving pumpkins, the trick or treating,
the Halloween parties, scarecrows, witches, the memories... :)

Tobler Family Pictures


Last Saturday, I had the opportunity to take pictures of the Tobler Family. Luckily, Jessica brought along her friend, Brock (who also happened to be my brother from trek years ago) to help with the shots that I was in!






Have I mentioned that I love Fall?

Weekend visit from Kristie

Finally, I was able to go up to the mountains to admire the leaves.
Fall is my favorite time of the year!
