My New Lens

It's been brought to my attention, that I have neglected to let you all know what lens I actually purchased! So sorry to keep you all in the dark! =)
I have a Canon Rebel XTi camera & received the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 macro lens. I haven't had it a week and already love this lens! I took lots of pictures so far this weekend so be prepared for some updates...as soon as I get some time to get everything uploaded.

Check it out!

My new lens is here ... and I really like it! I had the afternoon off Tuesday to take Kabe to the doctor. It was a beautiful afternoon so when we came home we took some time to take a few pictures.





Then after being outside a bit, we headed to the field for a baseball game. It got really windy and cold, but Kabe did get a couple runs.



He even made it all the way home!

Mother's Day!

Mother's Day in Central Illinois was COLD! In spite of the cold, the high winds and rain, my day and weekend, in fact, was fabulous.

For some time we've been looking for a new lens for our camera. Saturday we finally took the time to take our camera to a store and try it out with the lens I've been researching. Here is one of the shots I took at the store.

I absolutely love this shot!

After a little more running around and the purchase of Kabe's skateboard, we headed to get Adam, gather our stuff and head to see Iron Man. Let me just say, I was so not thrilled to see this show. Thinking it was a boy movie, my original intention was to send Adam & Kabe to see it together, then I decided I'd just go anyway. I'm so glad I did! I'm pretty sure I liked it way more than Kabe did! No, I'm not going to start collecting comics. =)

Oh - what about the lens, you ask? We didn't buy it yesterday, but we did order it online! =) More pictures to come...hopefully later in the week. Thank you for a Great Mother's Day Adam & Kabe!
