"A Snapshot of Me" By Skylar Ward

This was on a warm summer day during 2002. It was at Jordan High School. The grass was so green and soft. It was like sitting on a cloud. I remember I loved that year of football. One reason was that it was my first year playing and the other reason is that a lot of my friends were on my team also. I was getting kinda hot with my long socks and all of my pads on.

This picture was taken for football. It was a picture of my whole team. We had the picture tooken for so at the end of the football season we would be able to find old friends. Also just remember all the good times that year.

My feelings were quite odd I was felling like two different fellings that you shouldn't feel at the same time. I was excited and ready to take the picture. But I was also felling nervous and didn't want to take the picture because back then I didn't like taking pictures. I felt a little more comfertable because it was being taken with other people and my friends.

This was the day! I would be moving to Utah forever! I wouldn't be going to grandma's to play everyday. I wouldn't be borrowing the boys' clothes when I have an accident in my pants. I was going to move. I didnt really want to move but mom was having a hard time seeing him... everyday. I wasnt even a year old.





In the picture, my brother is sitting in his superman outfit. He was on the far left side. Sitting next to him was Nick, my cousin, he was the only one in pants and a long sleeved shirt. His shirt was red with little dinosaures on it. His pants were just regular light blue jeans. Next to him was his brother, Zach. He was wearing a cute little blue and green striped outfit. Zach is much shorter then everyone else even though he is the oldest. His short curly hair always looks great! He's deffinately going to be a stud! To the right of him was the most beautiful redneck in the world, ME!!! I was wearing my favorite outfit along with the best cowboy boots ever! The cowboy boots had been passed down between all of us in the picture, however I refused to give them up. They were just the most stylish thing in my closet!



Behind the four of us, was grandma's faded pink house. You could see the next door neighbors plain boring white house. You could also see clothes hanging to dry, and part of the porch. In front of us was a grey, cut every 2 and a half feet, sidewalk. You could see some perfectly greened grass as well.

It was the day i'd say goodbye.

A Snapshot of Me :By George Cowan

We got off the cruise ship on our last stop and landed in Cabo Mexico. We found a small boat company that gave us a tour ride to all the beaches & land formations. After that the boat company took us to one of the main beaches with a cafe called The Office.When we go off the boat all of the merchents surrounded us so we bought some stuff. after we got all of our things we found a nice spot on the beach. A man came up to us and asked if we wanted to ride the banana tube. He said that it cost $40 per person so we finaly decided to do it.


This photo was taken after the ride that lasted at least a half an hour long. We were geting off the tube And we kept falling in the water know one could stand up. we were going to go back on it agian but changed our minds. Insted we went to the cafe to eat lunch before we had to go back on the cruise ship and head home.


When we where on the tube every one was screaming and laughing. I remember my sister almost falling off so she grabed my life vest and pulled her self up. When we got off the tube every one said that i looked scared at first but by the end i didn't want to leave. My six year old cousin fell all the way off and started laughing really hard untill she choked on some water.

I remember that night like it was yesterday. It was very dark out that night and there was a slight chill in the air caused by a light breeze. With the sound of screaming, talking, and giggling in the background. The smell of corn filled our noses, while the thrilling spook set the mood.


It was Halloween night and we had a huge family get together. All of us had a great time getting lost in the maze made of corn. My grandmother, of course, had a camera glued to her hand and was photographing everyone in her path. My cousins and I soon became victims of this. We all put on a crazy face as she snapped the photo. We each revieved a copy of this photo so we could remember that fun and thrilling night.


I was feeling very happy and loved, as I always do when I am with my family. But that night was filled with even more love, excitement, and happiness than usual. It became a night that each of us would always remember, and one of the greatest nights of my life. That night is one of the strongest memories I have with my family. I wish I could always feel what I felt that night, love, safety, security, excitment, joy. Just a little bit of every emotion. It was one of the best nights of my life.


I remember my cousins and I had the been "scoping for guys" at the moment this photo was taken. We had seperated from the rest of the family and were just goofing off on our own. I remember how we were trying to impress some guys that we thought were cute because we knew we would most likely never see them again. My grandmother quickly noticed us and rushed over to snap the shot. I'm glad she took this photo because it made that night even more special and memorable!

In my snapshot it was during school hours I was in PE .It was really in the gym. But it was picture day at my old school in California.That day I was wearing a Black and pink striped shirt.The background of the picture was a tree with a fountain.So the tree is behind me coming out of the right side of the picture.Behind the tree and me there is a fountain.



The day that the picture was taken all the students were in many long lines.We were all waiting to get are picture taken.I remember that me and my friends were talking .At first we didn't know which pose we were going to choose. but we ended up choosing the pose where are hand was by our ear.I also remember that we would try to make each other laugh so we would come out laughing.



When the picture was taken I was thinking that I better come out good.It was during summer.Outside was really hot .There were months before the end of the school year.

When we were done taking the picture we would have to go outside.Since the gym was cool we wanted to be the last ones to take the picture so we wouldn't have to go outside.

I was a little over a year old when this photograph was taken. We had been at Disneyland all week, so we decided to go to a beach just a short drive from our hotel. The beach was sandy and dirty with twigs and sticks all over in the sand. It was nice and sunny outside with a clear blue sky in the background. It looked simple, like most every other beach in the world. To the right of me there was a man in the sand. My mom told me of the picture since I was too little to remember the event, but my mom doesn't know who the guy is either so it could be my grandpa, my dad, or a complete stranger.


It was my first time ever at the beach so my mom decided to take a picture of me to remember it. I was in my little, pink, frilly barbie swimsuit. My hair was in a pixie, shag type haircut and I had a look of frusteration and dispair on my face. I was covered with sand and lets just say it was rubbing in the wrong places! It was really hot outside and I badly wanted to go in the water, but my mom wouldn't let me go by myself, and being the big girl I was got upset. My mom took a picture because she says the look on my face was priceless to her!


Though I don't remember the event I feel like I was there from the story my mom told me. I can picture myself doing something like that, when I was little I was very defiant of my parents. I wanted to be my own person, I was so little and depended on my parents to take care of me, but I wanted to do things on my own. There I was sitting in the sand hot, upset, and sad. My mom snapped a picture: little miss grown up!

There I was standing on that rock acting like I'm flying or as my mo said falling through the air. As I am standing there I can see a clear shot of the ground, as if I was in the motion of falling, behind me is my brother standing the same exact way as me but much ferther up the rock. "Mom look at us" I yell as I stand and smile at my mom, getting ready to take a picture my mom says smile, but too late there I am standing on the rock like I about to fall off of a cliff with a facial expression like I just saw a giant hairy monster. In the picture you can see my brother in the backround looking as if he is picking something up, or as I say "he looks like he is throwing up!!" That day was so hot that I thought I was going to melt away like a ice cream cone, in the back round you can see the red rock like it has been sun burnt from sitting in the sun too long, that day I remembering traveling to South Dakota, in the picture we are somewhere in Evingston Wyoming, and let me tell ya it was hotter than ever.

During the time this picture was taken I was really happy, just knowing that my family was all happy and having a good time made me fell really happy!! In the picture my brothers are doing something, at the time I thought was really cool and wanted to be just like them, so thinking what I was thinking I did what they were doing and thought that it was the coolest thing to do, but even though me and my brothers were acting really wierd and funny, I was still happy and so was everyone in my family. At the time I was thinking "wow how cool am I, I am doing what exactly what my brothers are doing, I must be the coolest sister ever" but that was how it was back then when I always looked up to my brothers, well to admit it I still look up to them now, cause even though they think I am really annoying we all still love each other!

The sight of my and my brothers standing on that rock looking as if we were flying brought a smile on my parents faces, and still does, my parents thought how cute is that my cute little kids are looking like they are flying and look at the looks on thier faces isn't that just cute!
