Third time's...


...a charm
*Happy sigh*
 I just have to say I've missed being here with you. Priorities have a way of rearranging your life and instead of fighting it, I'm just rolling with it knowing that everything evens itself out eventually.
This entry is dedicated Deanna, over at

Her and I have been exchanging emails and she's so sweet patiently waiting for me to post. That is such a compliment. I guess the first thing I'll share with you is my first canvas (12x12) with my photo on it.

Here it is! Oh my gosh I love it! I cried for 5 minutes staring at it! The service was speedy but that might have more to do with the fact that it's printed in Santa Monica which is like 20 miles from me. Second, I'm blown away that my little iphone takes pics with such clarity. Third, quality work from Instacanv.as & I have it proudly displayed. Remember when your mom bronzed your baby shoes? This photo is like that, only 21st century style...because these are "my baby's" shoes forever immortalized on canvas.

One reason I haven't really been blogging is because I made a decision to buy camera #3 (hence the title today!) I've upgraded from the 50D to the 60D and she came yesterday! (yes she's a she...I'm a camera whisperer!) So in the meantime, I packed my other cameras away so that nothing happened to them before I had a chance to sell them!


  Remember how I said life is crazy busy here? I got to take ONE photo yesterday and this was it! Oh...I'm in love already and I can't imagine needing or wanting anything else!

Meet Matilda!
 LMAO...crazy right? But Frankie laughed when I called her a she & I needed a name for her. Matilda was the first thing that fell out his mouth, it made me smile & I went with it. I Love the fact that Frankie takes an interest in my hobby!
Looking at my pic...I probably should go clean my lens...and color my hair...and the list grows...
Until next time,
Happy Snapping!

  3. Love the canvas and YEAH! and congratulations on the new camera. Mine is aptly referred to as "my baby" by the entire family - no particular gender (perhaps I should inquire).

  7. I love that canvas! It's a beautiful piece of art and so neat that it has such personal meaning to you. Camera-wise, Matilda sounds like a perfectly good name. Can't wait to see what you two come up with!

  9. YAY for Matilda! I have the 60D and I love it too. I can't help lusting after the new mark iii though. That girl is wayyyy out of my budget right now so I'm so happy I stumbled upon your blog and seeing how gorgeous this camera still is. :)
