I believe this was officially the best Christmas ever...at least I got things I wanted without buying them myself (which is what usually ends up happening).
New Year's Eve we went to my mom's and it was great fun! Alex and I opened up our presents and we got this! This wasn't the exact camera I was going to purchase but it is a pretty awesome camera! My mom got it on recommendation from some people at a local camera shop. Actually I'm going to Toledo today to visit the shop because she got Alex and I another cool present...we're participating in a photo contest and I need to pick up the info for that. For three months we get to take pictures with a single use camera that they give us and the prints are entered in a contest. There's some other cool stuff with that too but I'm pretty excited about it.
The New Year's celebration at my mom's was pretty fun. I got to see my nephew, my sister briefly before she left for dinner, and my brother and his girlfriend were also there. Lots of good food and my mom made her Christmas punch because we love it so much :)
Our first day of the year was also fun...since we have our GPS unit back we decided to go geocaching. It was a great day to do Ann Arbor urban caches as there was plenty of places to park yesterday! I had a lot of fun playing with the new camera too.
This year I'm doing Project 365, I've already started with my first picture too. I'll be adding my pictures to Flickr and I'll also be blogging them over at my Vox Blog. I've got my first picture up along with a video I took from my camera while I was out geocaching yesterday. Check them out!
