Momma's got a brand new toy!!!

So my 30th birthday is this coming Monday, and my awesome hubby got me the BEST GIFT EVER!!!! And it just so happened to arrive a few days early...and because he is so awesome, he let me have a few days early!!!

He got me the Canon Rebel T1I camera WITH the extra lens!!! Now I can take FABULOUS pictures of my boys to share with all of you!!!!

Of course when it showed up this afternoon, I had to get the battery charged up and had to start taking pics ASAP!!! I decided to take some pics of the boys (naturally) and some of my christmas decor as well.....


Really can't get over the difference in picture quality...its so much clearer! Having a snack while watching a movie....

Christmas Tree in our Living RoomI really love this tree, its big, full, & just beautiful when decorated... I decorate with colors which coordinate with my living room decor...That means, blue, chocolate brown, & cream...I also have some gold accents throughout for a little sparkle....

I decided to tackle this project after seeing Thrifty Decor Chick's version on her site. Check out the link above to see her gorgeous Christmas Vignette. The glass globes in the picture were collected from home, goodwill, & one was purchased @ hobby lobby for $5. All of the ornaments in the glass containers and throughout the display were purchased at Walmart. The bare spaces were then filled in with greenery, pine cones, & tea light candles. I really love the way it turned out!

My little photographer....

As soon as I got my new camera out, Parker had to get my other

camera & take some pics of his own!

Gotta love that scrunched up face...LOL!Look at that sweet profile....love the tree in the background.

Parker's tree in his room

Parker's room is done in sports, so its only fitting that he has a sports tree...

Love his "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" Ribbon

Purchased the ribbon at hobby lobby and glued it with fabric glue to a wider ribbon for a bigger impact.

Christmas tree in Master Bedroom



The tree in our master bedroom again matches the decor in that room. Our bedroom is a soft gold color with cream accents & so is our Christmas tree..... Love my little high heel...too cute!

Hope everyone is enjoying this Holiday Season! Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year from our family to yours!
