Printers and Cameras, Oh My!

I got my new printer and my new camera yesterday.  I LOVE them!  The printer is actually a printer/scanner combo.  I got the Canon Pixma MP620, and I've only played with it a bit, but it is definitely waaaay better than what I had.

I took a picture of Brandon setting up my new printer, with my new camera.  As you know, I got the Canon Rebel XSi, and it's amazing!  It keep giggling or squealing or jumping up and down when I take a picture, and I've already taken a ton of pictures!  So Brandon keeps laughing at me, but he's taken at least as many pictures as I have so I know he's excited too.

 

I didn't do a very good job cleaning the mirror, did I?  Oh well.  This is one of the ones that Brandon took, and I think it looks really cool:

Snow Baby

I took Elora out to see the snow after that first good snowfall.

We got all bundled up, and headed out to our little front yard.

She didn't much like it, and I certainly can't blame her!

Snow is pretty to look at, when it's fresh, but other than that, it's just terrible.

Quilt update: I got the embroidery finished on her name, and I got the backing pinned on.

Then I folded it up and put it on my table, and every time I see it I tell myself, "I'll get to it in a bit." The truth be told, I'm rather intimidated by the idea of hand quilting it, and I'm procrastinating. Now, I'm working on jewelry. I'll try to get some pictures posted.
