Promised post, with pictures!

So, I had a fabulous visit with my family this Christmas. It was the only thing that made Christmas worth it this year. I don't think I have ever felt so 'done' with this holiday as I did this year. Well, it is over, gone, and thank heavens! So, now I will put up waaaaaay to many pictures taken with my fabulous new Canon Power Shot camera. It is this fun fall orange color (great choice Bro!) and fits in my coat pocket with my wallet and keys. I have been playing around with it, and really need to sit down and scan the manual that came with it. I can take short videos, but need to figure out how.
Anyhow...here are some picture I took at mom and dads' after I got the camera.
This is a little house they have in the kitchen window. I am really impressed with the clarity, quality and color of the pictures I get from this camera.
Moms cookies taste as great as they look, as always!
I love how the reflection of the table clothe looks in this pewter wine cup.
One of the many beautiful ornaments on the Christmas tree.

This particular little candle was simply so pretty! It is one of the first pictures I took, and I am again amazed with how wonderful it turned out. I see lots of picture taking in my future!

  1. That little star candle holder is now gone, sorry to say. It broke in half when we let that very candle burn itself out in it.
    Great pictures, Sylvia. I used some of those for my January letter answering my mail.
