New Camera

Santa brought a new camera to our house for Christmas.  Photography is one of Jim's passions and cute pictures of my children is one of my passions. Santa knew just what to bring!

We took over 1000 pictures today.  Right now I am sifting through 800+ pictures on my laptop after deleting the blurry ones.  Hopefully the number of pictures we take will slow down, because I don't think the hard drive can handle it.  At least we don't have to pay to have pictures developed!

Today we went to DC to see the Christmas display at the botanical gardens and the museums.  It took well over 45 minutes to find a place to park, after driving time, parking time, eating and bathroom breaks, we actually never made it to any exhibits.  

I pretty much spent the day looking like this.

In fact, I deleted over 50 different angry pictures of myself, with plenty leftover.  It was pretty much the only face I brought to the museums today.

Jack and Lilly mostly brought their happy face to the museum, they had a lovely time, despite their mother.

The only museum we actually entered was the art gallery.  We went there for restrooms and food.  Then Jim and the children discovered the moving sidewalk with LED lights.  It provided a good 10 minutes of entertainment and a couple hundred pictures (80% of the pictures were taken by Jim, he gets the photo credit).

Part 2 of our afternoon in DC coming soon....
