Oh my Gosh, Oh my Gosh!

My wonderful, darling, thoughtful boyfriend gave me my birthday/Christmas present today. My birthday is actually on Tuesday, but since we don't typically get to see each other during the week, we celebrated early. I still am in total shock over the amazing gift he got me. Look! Its a Nikon! Oh my gosh! I've wanted to take better pictures forever but a Nikon was a bit over my budget. He saved up for this beauty for the last year and a half and even used a coupon to buy it (but he won't tell me how much he spent and that's probably best - I think I might faint! lol). I've been taking pictures of things around my apartment all day. Let's take a look, shall we?
Say hello to my little piggie! Old camera:
New camera:Isn't the difference amazing?!? And keep in mind I know how to use about 4 of the 400 buttons/settings/speeds on this camera. :) And it has lenses! That you can change! That take different kinds of pictures! Oh my goodness, this is so cool.

Mousse playing with a part from the camera box (he liked it too!):
Gigi posing (she looks like this a lot, a bit surprised, a bit annoyed):
A leaf from my plastic plant - my, it looks a tad dusty doesn't it? Where's that maid?
Taking pictures is thirsty work!
Isn't this sweet? My boyfriend bought this and hung it in my bedroom (all in secret). Yup, he's a keeper. :)
Fair warning - expect lots of pictures of weird stuff in the near future! :)

yay! great camera. You BF is definitely a sweetie pie. Thats the camera I've had on my wish list since my b-day and I know exactly how much it costs. Let's just say your BF is a very very very sweet lol. You should probably bake him some cookies. Or just give him a big ol' smooch on the cheek! :oP

Soon you'll give PW a run for her money!
