Graduation in Port Townsend

I'm up in Port Townsend, WA, one of my favorite places to visit! My cousin, Jessie (you may remember her from her senior portraits) graduated from high school on Thursday night. Despite getting a late start and being trapped in road construction, we made it for most of the 2.5 hour long ceremony, which included live music, great speeches, and diplomas!

This is Sherbet. They rocked! :)



I'm a little biased, but look at that girl! Cute AND smart!


Maybe not the worst family picture of all time, but it is close. I offered to do a little Photoshop magic and move some faces around but Jessie said to leave it. This describes her family perfectly! So wise beyond her years.

I was also commissioned to take photos on the senior cruise. We boarded the Emerald Star for a voyage around the Puget Sound until 3:30am! I didn't even know I could stay up that late anymore!


Airbrush tattoos were definitely the highlight of the evening!



A little game show. Christian ended up taking it all in the last round for a DVD player.

Congrats class of 2008! Your discs of the night will be in the mail in a couple weeks!

Onward, one of my favorite spots in PT is Water Front Pizza. Nothing incredibly special, just outstanding pizza. While we waited, I played. This was their floor. Its very small, and the moving around has rubbed through what looks like about 5 layers of tile/vinyl flooring! Amazing patter with that and the flour, may try to get back for more.



My Aunt Sally, myself, and my mom at Water Street Brewing. We stayed in a really cool funky little hotel over the bar! It was great! Good band, good beer, great food (although we weren't eating that night).



Mom and I the next day on our little balcony looking over the sound. I love the red brick and blue accent, but I took this one with PhotoBooth on the computer, so its not as pretty as usual. But we are!

We made a little seafood feast in the suite and just chilled tonight. I'm going to catch up on some sleep since its almost midnight and this is the earliest I've been in bed. 3am two days in a row isn't cutting it!



I will post more as I go, in the middle of uploading photos, I went and took more of the sailboat with the moon. :)
