A New Obsession

Oh goodness.  Bryan has really done it this time and I don't think he realizes the ramifications of his actions.  After years (yes, years) of talking about getting a DSLR, we finally bit the bullet and bought one.

Canon T1i

And we're both obsessed.  After less than two weeks of owning it, we bought a second lens.  The nifty fifty as I hear it's called.

Here are my favorite pictures so far.  In the future I will show more restraint.  But since my postings have been so sporadic lately, I'll just throw all these pictures into one post. :)

Great fall decorating idea--found in neighbors yard.  Now vintage bike with basket is going on my wish list.

 

I had no idea lavender had little blossoms!  Our lavender is still going strong even with the cooler temps--I will be planting more next year.  

  We are almost to peak color (although a lot of the trees have already lost their leaves).

Currently displayed on our mantle.

And now, be prepared for an onslaught of Bindi pictures.  What can I say, she's our favorite subject.

 

And this might be my most favorite picture EVER!
