My one complaint about the Sigma 50mm is that it doesn't focus close enough. I used a Cokin +3 macro filter to get this shot.

Becca and I went to see 'The Forgotten Carols'. Our seats were way up in the back of the balcony section, but I'm glad we went.

chillygator took Becca and me to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas concert. It was too cold to shoot temple light photos after the show, so I took a few shots in the car on the way home.

This was the huge Madden Lounge that Jonathan designed. It was so funny....while I was at the party a lady came up to me and asked me who I was with. I said Jonathan and Emily. She then said she didn't know who Jonathan was proceeded to tell me that HER husband built the wall. Everyone at work calls Jonathan "Sketch" so she didn't put two and two together (since I called him Jonathan). Then I pointed to Jonathan and said, "that's my brother-in-law". Then she told me he did a wonderful job building the TV wall. I almost fell over laughing!!! The moral of the story...don't lie....or I'll post in on my blog.

It snowed this morning which caused a lot more people to ride trax than normal, but then they sent a train with only 1 car instead of the normal 3 cars. Most of the people from each stop couldn't get on the train because of how packed it was.

A Tuffed Titmouse (Baeolophus bicolor)

My Mother-in-law has a bird feeder right outside her front window. The birds wouldn't come if I stood by the window with the camera, so I put the camera on a tripod with a radio shutter release and waited across the room. It worked pretty well.

I borrowed that middle photo right of Josh's livejournal! I think he took the best one of the bunch! I have to take photos at Winterfest tonight - the kids and Santa. I'm super excited but I've had ANOTHER hard day with the dog so I'm alreay exhausted. The dang thing pooped in his crate and rolled in it. Twice. All I talk about is puppy poop...my life is about poop. That's not cool.

Scrapbook Info

It's been a great day today with the puppy. I have a new lease on life!!! It's going to be a busy afternoon. Faith has dance, I'm taking some Christmas portraits, Elyse will no dought have a ton of homework, and then the young women are going ice skating tonight. It should be so much fun. Hopefully I won't have a three tons of dog poop to clean up when I get home. Maybe I need to stop by Home Depot and buy a shovel just in case.

It snowed today - it was gorgeous outside. Elyse was sick today so she's got lots of homework. Fractions!
