WWC and a new toy

Newt has a new toy! Isn't she beautiful?

A warm and heartfelt thank you to my Aunt Betty and Uncle Phil for such an amazing gift.

So to break her in I went to Como Park. And over 100 pictures later I got a perfect WWC picture and then some. So the first slide show is WWC and the second is the camera's first shots.

Wow, Newt, what a beauty of a gift!
Your peek-a-boo made me laugh. :)
The rest of the photos are gorgeous!

Yay! A new camera! I'm too happy for you to be jealous. Well, much. ;)

I love the pictures. They're gorgeous. My favorites are the "a-boo!" shot and the grumpy looking Koi. Although the steamy shots from the garden are really nice too. I can't wait to see what else you take. So... Have you named the camera yet?

My camera's name is "Balls" as in "Cannon Balls". Hehe. But it sounds funny when I tell people I'm going to go play with my "Balls". I know, I'm five.

New digi camera!? How FAB-TASTIC for YOU!!!

The coral pink flower is my favorite! I have scrapbooking flowers that look exactly like that one!

Yippee for you, that camera is awesome! I love the sloth, I've been feeling like him lately...you know it can take them half a day to move several feet?

The Como shots are so pretty! I could spend forever in a Japanese garden.
