My New Camera!!

For my birthday gift, I got a new digital camera. While I love my Canon Rebel, I wanted something easy to use and compact enough to have in my purse ALL the time and a rechargeable battery so I didn't have to carry heavy double A's around everywhere I went! I wanted it under $200 in a cool color.. this one came in about 6 and I got a cool bronzey brown color. I got a Canon Power Shot digital ELPH and I love it!!! its been so much fun already. We played with it as Tristan napped on my lap yesterday with all these cool effects below.





Here is our Christmas tree and the few gifts done in BW and green.




























This is me in my birthday gift from the kids taken with BW and red only- they insist i wear it everytime I go in the kitchen... so funny.






this one is with all color gone except the pinks... and then greens










This one was taken in sepia tone which I've always loved!! also wide angle which is great for large families.. not so great for me alone :) And the close up below under my 40th birthday post of the eye is on the macro feature for super close ups....Anyway, I just love the camera and wanted to share!! forgive the boredom....

Wow! Lots of updating, but it was nice to see what you all have been up too. Cool camera! Sorry we missed Flips last week, I had something come up at the last minute and could not make it. BTW, I do have a little something for you birthday! Maybe we can have a playdate for the kids and meet for lunch soon.
