A Walk in the Beautiful Oregon Outdoors

I've made it a goal to get a little exercise this summer, so the other day I walked down to the lake near our house. It was so beautiful! Too bad there's no swimming allowed, because it would've been the perfect day for it.

    I have been neglecting my exercise... time to get back to it. Your pictures are amazing. My mom was from Salem Oregon, I spent 23 glorious days in the summer of 1995 and I LOVED every minute of it :)

    Gorgeous photos!! I never have time to exercise, but I do happen to walk a lot just from the nature of living in Manhattan and not having a car. I haven't been to Oregon since I was a little kid [I grew up in California, so we actually made it up there pretty frequently], it is so gorgeous there! You just don't get that kind of green here.

    Hi Jen! I am loving the photos! I haven't been loyal to my excercising regimen lately, but I did work-out yesterday morning with the daughter at the gym. Boy am I hurting today! I've never been to Oregon, but it looks like a very nice place to visit. Tootles!

    beautiful pictures :) and the way we do it is we make all of our hobbies active (well, other than blogging of course :) when we are done with work or class we're off the the rock climbing gym or even if its a movie and icecream kind of night we bike to the store to pick up the redbox :)
    excited to be your newest follower!

Hi, my name is Linda and I am a 25 year old law student living in Manhattan. I blog over at My Passion Is... about my life, scrapbooking, DIY crafts, photography, exploring NYC & more. I am honored to be sharing a post with you today on Jen's blog, so thanks for having me! I recently completed a mini album that I made out of a pasta box so I wanted to share a tutorial with you so you could make your own! What you need: empty pasta box [I used a whole foods penne pasta] scrapbook papers & embellishments a single hole punch sturdy tape [like packaging tape] a paper cutter and/or scissors some sort of binding, either binding rings or ribbon First, you are going to flatten out your pasta box. Then you are going to cut it down to two 6x6 squares [or whatever size album you want to make]. If the box doesn’t fit perfectly in those shapes that’s alright, just piece them together using packaging tape to hold the squares together. Once you cover them i...

Looking for a new church

For reasons I won't bore you with, I'll most likely be moving a little closer to school within the next month or two. This prompted me to start church-hunting again, to find something a little closer to where I'll be located. And this, of course, prompted me to start thinking in depth about what helps me decide what churches to try and what churches to stick with once I try them. via Website I must say, a church's website is a pretty huge first impression. If you don't have one... or if it looks like it hasn't been updated since 1992... I most likely won't read far enough to even find out when your service times are. You don't need a flashy, gimmicky site either (in fact, I'd prefer you didn't), but please make sure to list services times, directions, ministry and education opportunities, and also names and emails/phone numbers of people I can get in contact with in case I have more questions. Also, it is super helpful to have some phot...
