my new camera is here!!!

Oh happy day!!! My new camera arrived yesterday and it is beautiful! After much thought and research, I decided to go with the Canon Rebel XS. It's the model between the xti and xsi and I felt it best suited my needs (as well as the bank account) at the moment. THANK YOU ALL for your valued input!!! I can't tell you how helpful it was to have your suggestions. I can already tell that this camera and I are meant to be.. and how do I know this? Just yesterday, I was notified that I was the lucky winner of the Shabby Straps giveaway at Fabulous Fun Finds! What are the odds of that?? It's kismet, I tell ya. It was tough to choose from these camera straps, but in the end, I went with the brown and blue stripes (pictured last).

I figured that if I ever wanted my husband to wear the camera around for me, he'd have less of an excuse not to (i.e., the girly patern on the strap doesn't match his outfit). ;)

I can't wait to finally take some pictures! Hopefully I'll have time to play around with it this weekend. I'll also be able to show you many of the pieces I've been working on lately! Be prepared for more random postings around here!

Happy Lucky Friday the 13th!!!
