Casey, Jake and a Friendly Flower

Yea! I now have a "camera"- not a point and shoot! This is a real camera and I am in love!! I just don't know how to use it! Thank God it comes with "Auto". He is very helpful.I searched high and low for something/someone to take pictures of so I could try out my new little gem. Fortunately for me, grandson Casey came over to visit! I made him let me take his picture!!

And Jake of course had no choice in the matter. But he did cock his ears quite nicely so he must have liked the sound of the fancy shutter clicking away.

And this Azalea had no choice in the matter either. Poor little thing is just freezing out there in the cold but I think he did like the 5 inches of rain we had on Friday! That is a lot of rain!

I am almost ready for Christmas. It is so much easier when you get older and don't feel so compelled to be super woman and bake and shop and wrap AND do all the normal everyday chores. I think I like this a lot! Merry Christmas!
