are you noticing anything different with my photos???

ONE HAPPY MAMA with my new Canon!

It's the cheapest Canon DSLR out there (the T3), and I've got it fitted with a rubber cover, and a lens hood to try to keep it safe.  I think I should name her, what do you think?  Cami?  She needs a bag or case, so if any of my camera friends have advice on camera cases, let me know!

Messy doughnut baby in my bed this morning!

(was having problems with my lens hood showing up in the photos!)

I made some really yummy cake balls for our 4th of July Party at church today!  And can you believe that without even using manual settings, I got these great close-ups?  Really loving the new camera and can't wait to learn how to use it even better!

Now I've got to go Google how to change these margins so that the right edges of my giant pictures don't get cut off!  Hope you've all had a blessed Independence Day!  May God Bless America, our home sweet home!
