My Day in Pictures...

Note that my day didn't really start until I got this in the mail at 4:00
Yes, the brand new Canon Rebel XSi. I got it new on eBay for a delicious $618. I'm feeling pretty good about my purchase. So if you got a better deal, don't ruin it for me...

Before I got the mail today, though, I finally opened up my other birthday present



and started to use it to fix Derek's shorts. Any tips on patching? I fixed the rip, but he needs patches over all the special places.


Then I made some delicious orange cranberry scones while these people slept:

(first picture with the Rebel!)

(miraculously she didn't wake up to the noise and the flash)


(this one did wake up to the noise and the flash-- my bad. This is after that, though. It clearly didn't affect him too badly, though.)


Then later I fed all the sleepers this- from Rachel Ray's "30 Minute Meals". It's known as "You-Won't-Be-Single-For-Long Vodka Cream Pasta". It's amazing.

Happy birthday!! Your camera looks AMAZING and I love the quality of the pictures you've taken w/ it. Yay for birthday wishes coming true. I absolutely love vodka sauce. There's this chicken vodka pizza I love to make that is to die for. I can't wait to try your vodka pasta. Oh, my mouth's watering already.
