Introducing...

...the newest member of our life...

For Christmas we were lucky enough to receive a Canon Rebel XTI Digital SLR from my parents!!! This camera is truly a dream come true and we are so thankful to have such a wonderful present. I keep saying "we" but let's be honest...I've taken over the camera. :) Poor Lucas kind of lost out on a Christmas present because of this but I let him use it whenever he wants. Thanks to this camera I now find beauty in everything...and I do mean everything. So get ready for the pictures.

The first place I enjoyed the camera was at Springfield Brew Co. I had just bought the memory card for it so I could finally take some pictures that lasted. My sister Megan and a good glass of beer...

I have to say that my favorite thing about the camera at this point is a simple one...I don't have to use the flash!!! It's so liberating to have the proper settings to take the pictures I want to take. I love it!!! Thanks Mom & Dad...

This is only the beginning...

***I am officially warning you that the next few posts will be FILLED with pictures***

I tried to post a few pictures while we were home but I couldn't possibly keep up with all the action so I'll recap some highlights. While we were still in Kansas City I was able to meet up with a few friends...my friend Jennifer from college...my friend Anna from high school...

...and our lovely friends, The Reimers! They were on they're way through Kansas City heading for Kansas and we were able to catch up with them for a quick lunch at Steak N' Shake...

Jeff was even kind enough to pick up some great books for Lucas. He did this for Lucas because we secretly brought a bag for Jess that Jeff purchased from Shelley.

As we met with them for lunch the snow began to fall down so we spent the afternoon clearing the driveway and playing in the snow...

On Christmas morning we woke up, opened presents and then headed to West Plains to see my family. From there the real picture extravaganza began...but we'll save that for another post. :)

Homeward Bound...

This will be very short but I just thought I would do a quick update to say we are heading back to Vancouver!!! After 3 1/2 weeks home we will be back in Canada sometime this evening. I'm writing this while sitting in the Kansas City airport waiting to board our non-stop flight to Seattle.

It's been great being home but it will also be great to get back into our "normal" schedules (if you can even call our schedules normal). Lucas will be finishing up his thesis that is due on January 30 and I'll be back to school as well starting next Monday. Until then I'll be posting tons of pictures thanks to our Christmas present from my parents...Canon Rebel XTI Digital SLR!!!! We love it and I can't wait to show it off. :)

Well we're off to Seattle now with a stop in Bellingham for some groceries and a final Target stop...can't have too much Target. :)
