I immediately started messing around with it and came up with one of many pictures of a birthday cake. We celebrated Hannah's birthday as well as my birthday on Saturday with family.
Micah playing with his cars, paused to smile at mama, and a sweet smile it is.
An attempt at a close up of some flowers. Not the greatest shot, but it's all I had to work with at the moment and the recent cold snap has killed off most of the blossoms.
A father daughter moment. It also was a good excuse to take another picture.

This afternoon, it was so beautiful outside, and I was so eager to take pictures of the kids (well, 3 of them anyway). I brought the camera outside and snapped away. I mostly mess with the aperture setting. Here is Micah pausing in the action to give me a sweet sweet look with those brown eyes!
Timmy was loving every minute of me taking photos of him! He is such a handsome young man!
Kenan finished up his homework and came out to model his cuteness for me and model he did! When I was finished snapping pictures of Timmy and Kenan, I had what looked like a mini photo shoot. An amateur shoot, but I think they turned out pretty good for a first time!
All 3 brothers together. Micah has been known to not want to look at the camera when I'm taking pictures. You can't tell by today's pictures though. I was still surprised that he cooperated with a group shot. What a handsome bunch of boys!
Then I switched the settings to autumn colors and took a picture of the tree in our front yard. Lovely!
I am loving my new camera! So much to learn but I'm taking it one step at a time. Next step is to get a photo editing software so I can have even more fun tweaking the photos! I've always loved taking pictures of my family and I think that comes from my love of scrapbooking. I've discovered in the last couple years that I love photography as well. I am excited at all the possibilities!!
