Santa came early this year!

So a week or so ago I mentioned to Luke that I would love a new digital camera for Christmas. Our camera doesn't have optical zoom and even if we upgraded the memory card to one that could hold more than a dozen photos, I've never really been all that happy with it. So for the past week we've been reading reviews on the web and narrowing down our options. Last night at Best Buy we made our final decision and brought home a brand new Canon Powershot SD400.


Well we didn't quite bring it home... Larry and Catherine were kind enough to stop at Best Buy on our way to Rhianna and Poncho's "Goodbye House" party. They will be moving soon and wanted to throw a party. It was pretty fun.

Upon arriving I promptly plugged in the battery to charge. As it was charging I proceeded to knit a little case to keep the camera warm and safe. By the time I finished, the battery was charged so we played around with the various photo settings and took some mini movies. Oh ya, we also bought a 1GB memory card. Ooh.

We headed out from the party around midnight. I'm not someone who likes to stay out late, and when I decide I want to leave, I really want to leave right away. I didn't want to force Larry and Catherine to leave if they weren't ready, but they seemed willing and so we tore off. We didn't head straight home though. The drunks in the group (the guys) and Catherine and I were feeling a bit peckish, so a late night stop at Denny's was had. Luke had a giant breakfast - eggs, sausage, bacon, hashbrowns, and a giant fruit pancake - and he kept it down! Luke was drunk and didn't puke! Wow! I had a delicious apple crisp and shared in on the sampler platter. Mmm, onion rings. So that was that and then we headed home and collapsed into bed. Now Sunday, what do you have in store for us?
