One of the things I decided to do going into 2009 to help me celebrate and enjoy my hobbies more was to create this blog. My hope is that having this as a place to post my photos and digital creations will keep me motivated to continue pursuing these hobbies which both serve as a great creative outlet.
I did not end up taking any photos on Christmas Eve... it was just too hard as I was hosting at my house. But, I did snap a few on Christmas Day at my Aunt & Uncle's house.

Speaking of Christmas, my hubby got me some new photography toys for Christmas. I got the Tamron 70-300mm F/4-5.6 Di LD Macro lens and the Manfrotto 190XPROB Tripod with 322RC2 Grip Action Ball Head. I tried out the new lens through the front window this morning and captured some squirrels and birds in the front yard.
My hubby and I have decided to take up snowshoeing and used our Christmas money from my grandparents towards our new snowshoes and poles. I'm really excited about getting started because I think it will be a great way to be able to get more outdoor photographs in the winter. Unfortunately, after the 2 big snow storms we had last week, we've now had a bunch of rain that has melted most of the snow so we will have to wait for some new snow to get started.
