 It has been a different week here...
Hotrod being sick...he is much better now...
he has a cold...but the strep throat is better...
 
we did manage to get a few art projects in this week...
we finally bought our Christmas tree today...
it is up...not decorated yet...
well it has one ornament Hotord made...
I'm going to put the lights up tomorrow...
Hotrod will help me decorate on Monday....
 

I got my Christmas present early....
a Speed light 430....flash...
my indoor photos have never been to good...
all these photos were taken with the new flash...
I get to test it out tomorrow...
I have a photo shoot at my daughters dance studio...
it is a Christmas Gala...a fundraiser...
for their dance team...
No Santa this year...
I will be taking photos of them with a ballerina...
of course you know photos will be posted soon...
 

I'm looking forward to next Tuesday...
I get to go to a tea at a blog pals home...

forgot to say, the first time i used my speed flash at the nursing home Christmas dance, half way through the battery died in the flash and in my camera... it draws a lot of power, so take extra battery for the camera and if you have an extra for the flash.
