Marathon!

I am stoked. Once again it is that time of year, Marathon time. No, I don't run it, but Foster does. This year, he has decided to participate on the National Guard team in the half-marathon. He has done 3 full marathons and quite a few half's. I love to watch him run, and especially in the cute shorts that the Nat. Guard issued for this race!

What I am most excited about is that I recieved my new camera!!!!! And I get to use it for the first time this morning. Well, not the FIRST time because I played around with it for about 2 hours yesterday, but that is beside the point. It is AMAZING! The sports mode takes multiple pictures in a very short amount of time, capturing every movement of the object. I was finally able to get some good pictures of my pup Reagan. She is so camera shy, and if she knows she is being photographed, she hides. I can be really really sneaky with this new camera. It zooms in so far that I can be in the next room and get a close up of her and she never sees it coming.

Unfortunately, the mega pixels are so high on this camera, I am afraid I am going to have to buy an external hard drive for my computer, or else I will crash it with 5 pictures.
Stay tuned for pictures of today's events. I am looking forward to the people watching, the action shots, and maybe even a few cool shots of downtown. I have a feeling that I will have a new obsession. To top it all off, our wedding photographer (the one who took the picture at the top of my blog) has offered free lessons to learn all the bells and whistles of my new gadget.

This is officially my Birthday, Christmas, and Anniversary gift, but it is TOTALLY worth it! I love my husband!!!

You'll love your camera! My hubby bought an external hard drive and I keep most of my pics on that one. I take a lot of pics and then go back thru them and get rid of ones that look similar and I keep the best one out of the bunch.

So exciting! I've had a blast watching friends run marathons in the past... I was actually training for one myself when I shattered my ankle, but it's still always fun watching someone you love pull it off!
