076- Changing of the Guard

So here is my big reveal... My *for-real* big reveal... my little Lumix camera will be able to stop smoking from so much use. Can you believe that this little camera is responsible for all of my photos heretofore? (Until yesterday that is...)

Yesterday, on my way to the airport, I stopped at the UPS hub in Orem to intercept my brandy-spankin'-new Canon Rebel XS 10.1 MP package of dSLR awesomeness!!! I've been saving my dollars and finally took the plunge! Eons ago I had a film SLR camera and loved it. But this is just sexy-black-awesome-digital-goodness. (Do you get the feeling I think this is awesome? Yup... I do!)

I took yesterday's sunset photos and, well... about 30 more with my new toy. Then today Bek and I took a wildflower photo explore... but I thing those must wait for tomorrow. Today is Canon's day to shine.

Another bit of wonderfulness from yesterday... I'm a great auntie again! Yea! Joe and Jen now have baby Jace... he was born yesterday. Mom, Dad, & baby Jace are all doing well (Mama's probably quite sore... Jace was to big to come out the conventional way... silly baby!)

Wow. I didn't get any of that. I am so not camera savvy. But I appreciate your fantastic eye for everything beautiful & ability to capture it, and I am pleased you have a better machine to do it!

Joanie dear...I don't think it's going to fit in your marsupial pocket! But it is sexy...
