New Camera=Random Pics

We have finally broke down and bought a new digital camera for me. My old digital camera was like 7 years old and was falling apart. Last weekend, my mom borrowed and ended up taking my old camera home with her to Tucson. Good Riddance. I was being a whiner this week because I all of a sudden had the "urge" to start taking pictures. Mind you...we have 2 really nice cameras that are used for like weddings and things...so I realize that I probably don't need a new camera...but we didn't have a camera we I could slip into my purse... Anyway, yesterday John surprised me with a new camera and I love it!!! It's a Canon Power Shot SD780. (I'm not really sure what all of that means...but I love the dang thing) Her are some pictures from the last 2 days...
Here is me last night when I discovered I had a new camera. I might have been thrilled!!!

Here is a picture of the valley from South Mountain...from the very top...

Here's me at the top of South Mountain. ( I went on the Climb for Cancer hike today...12 miles baby...)

We had Alexis over for lunch today...I made a pizza. Totally kidding...but we did order one from Domino's. I'm still not sold on their "new pizza"...it tastes too garlicly for me...

Here are the dogs. They are getting so big!!!

Here is a picture of John chillin on the couch. Notice the tan wall behind him... (this is a new color added to our living room)

Here is a picture I found of John from last week when we were painting the walls. He is hot!!! (if you look closely at the pic...the word hot is added to John's painting shirt)

Here are my random pictures...surely there will be more to post as I experiment with our new camera!!!

Up North

We're back!!! I took a vacation from blogging and now I'm ready to get back into the swing of things. Here is an update on our family: John has been doing much well since his surgery. Thanks for everyone's love and support. I'm doing well. Still doing a Masters program. I'll be done in a year from this week actually!!! That's about all there is to say with the update! Here are some pictures that we took last month when we were visiting John's family up North.
