...he loves me,
he bought me a fan-dangly new camera...
A Canon EOS 550D, no less!
Oh husband, how I love thee ♥
Anthony is notorious for the best 'just because I love you' gifts,
but he outdid even himself with this one.
Now I understand why all the cool people have a Canon...
They are unbelievably good!
The *Drop of Desert Sky* Necklace
{ SOLD - thank you!}
The *Petite Desert Flower* Ring in Tangerine
Available here
The *Moroccan Trinkets* Necklace
Available here
The Canon has also been great for shooting some new custom orders,
including this lovely Twilight Topaz and filigree ring...
...this all black version of my *Safi* Earrings...
...and my *Mosaique* Necklace, newly embellished with pebbles of 9 carat gold at the request of a lovely lady...
~*~
The camera was also a blessing for October 7...
our daughter's birthday...
Four!
I cannot believe our baby girl is four!
I will never forget the first moment I saw her,
I gasped because she was the most beautiful creature I had ever seen.
And she grows more beautiful with every passing year...
The hula hoop was a big hit...
she danced and twirled for hours...
...only stopping to ride her new scooter...

It's a Tinkerbell scooter,
naturally.
:-)
And when the new toys had been thoroughly broken in,
my budding chef helped me to decorate her own birthday cupcakes,
complete with sprinkles and princess decorations...
What more could a little princess ask for!

I'm looking forward to sharing the culmination of my giveaway prizes with you soon as well...
they are coming together beautifully...
Stay tuned!

Have a wonderful, wonderful weekend, my friends!
Don't forget to smile :-)

Does this mean I'm not one of a the cool people because I have a Nikon?
ReplyDelete;-p
Jo, I really love this age...such fun! And yes, the new camera definitely comes in handy for capturing these special moments :-) x
ReplyDeleteTherese, thank you for the birthday wishes for India! I can't quite believe that she is four already...seems like she was a baby only yesterday. October is certainly the month for birthdays...my Grandpa (Indie's great-Grandpa) turned 89 today :-)
Jaime, you don't need a camera to be cool...you are cool just the way you are ;-) x

What a sweet gift and your pictures are fabulous...as is your little one...looks like she had a great birthday. October is a wonderful month for birthdays...my dad, my brother, my grandfather...all within a week of each other.
ReplyDeleteMarie, Anthony gives the best 'just because' gifts...he is always surprising me! India has a major obsession with cupcakes at the moment. The pinker and girlier, the better! :-) -xxx-
ReplyDeleteSandi, I'm glad you like the photos...the new camera certainly helps! Wow, that is a lot of birthdays to celebrate within a week of each other! We have at least four family members who celebrate their birthdays one day after another...and my Dad and Grandad shared the exact same birthday LOL :-) Hope you and yours are well! x
