Life these days

For my 38th birthday Jimmy bought me a nice camera… like a real camera. Whoo-hoo!
What a generous dream come true! I have oodles to learn to get better photos,
but I notice a difference right away that it actually focuses on the subject and blurs the rest.
Nice! Here’s Liza’s pose. Can you believe those glorious natural waves?!

The boys were causing lots of ruckus on Sunday afternoon so I told them we could make cookies.
My life is cookies and milk and yellow balloons after all, right Steph?!

Birthday cheesecake from my parents. Yummers!

The first photo on the camera. Miss Hannah before washing her face.

And to include all the kids, here’s Abe who was a willing person for the camera.
He likes how fast the camera takes the photo so he doesn’t have to wait around forever.

Now – to figure out shooting out of auto?!
