my birthday present
A few posts ago I mentioned that I had my birthday during my little blogging break, but I didn’t mention the best part which was my birthday present from Ben. I wasn’t really expecting anything this year, but Ben surprised me with wanting to get me something. I was definitely surprised alright when I found out what I was getting for my birthday! My sweet husband bought me the camera that I have been talking about for months… the canon 40d.
I am absolutely in love with this camera! My previous camera body was the canon rebel xti, which is a wonderful camera too but the 40d has so many little things that make it even better. I shoot exclusively in manual & aperture priority modes and the 40d makes shooting in manual easier than with the xti. Have I mentioned that I love my new camera & my husband! (Although not in that order of course:) I have dreams of becoming a bit more serious with my photography (that is a topic for a whole other post:) and am so thankful for a wonderful husband who is supportive of those dreams. So thanks to my sweet husband, Ben, for a wonderful birthday gift!
(This post also explains why things have been a bit slow on the sewing & crafting front lately, although I still do have a few projects in mind that I want to start so I am sure some sewing will happen soon:)

Wow! Lucky you! I haven’t been doing much sewing over here either, so don’t feel bad.
oooh! wow! i’m speechless - when my rebel (the original) dies (although, realistically will it ever?) this is my replacement - my husband has agreed.
and belated happy birthday.
