Will you dance the HAPPY DANCE w/ me?
What's the occasion you ask? Well dearies Big Daddy SURPRISED me in the biggest way last Thursday. He come home w/ this little beauty...
It's the Canon Rebel Xsi that I have been coveting! Is she as sweet as I had hoped? YES and more! Of course it's been cloudy and dreary here since I got her, so I haven't gotten to fully experience her features yet...but I am in LOVE! Thank you thank you thank you honey--you are the absolute BEST and I love you!
I ran around snapping photos of things in our home to show you guys (I love it when you all do show and tells) some of the things you will see when you come to visit us ;)
this will greet you once you step inside. Can I confess to you that it's taking all of my restraint to NOT pull off all of those pretty crystals and make art out of them?
some of my "pretties"
See how dark and dreary it is? I love the way this window looks when there is no sunshine shining through it.
my purse :D yes I'm 12! I gave little Miz Chloe every opportunity to own this bag, but she turned her nose up. I thought it was way too cute to leave at the store.
This is where I chat w/ all of you.
Books, DVDs, games, photo albums, magazines, crayons and coloring books...these are a few of our favorite things. That poor old fake Ficus tree has got to go...many a kitten has chewed and scratched on it.
You can't live in Louisiana without having several fluer de lis in your decor. This is a hobby lobby find and I love it--it's made of tin!
Another must-have southern thing--some shabby chic roses from my FAVORITE flea market in Glenmora--Reggies!
This cabinet is where I keep all of my Blythe stuff. The girls live in the box w/ the domed top.
I think it's time for bigger sleeping quarters!
the last stop on my little tour is a lamp that sits near my desk. It's a nice catch-all for my favorite jewelry and my name tag from Artfest 2005 (dang has it been that long ago?)
Have a great week

Oh, you lucky girl! You will love, love, love this camera! I have a Canon and wouldn't have anything else. Did I ever mention to you that I used to live in LA?

We just got a new Canon, too-loving it so far. Keep taking those house photos, sooner or later you'll guilt me into actually finishing decorating mine:)
