We're back in business...

My new camera (i.e. my anniversary and birthday present x 4) arrived today!   I'm so excited.  Hopefully it stands up to everything the reviews said it would be.  I've been testing it out today and so far I'm liking it.  My favorite feature so far (that I didn't even know about when I bought it!) is that I can record videos and take pictures at the same time.  Now I won't have to choose whether to get that reaction/event/milestone on video or picture - I can do both!  A few test shots:

the campout on the back deck to watch fireworks.  We finally had to come in cause he just couldn't go to sleep...
