Feeling the love

An awesome thing happened to me the other day that came out of a really crappy thing and I just have to share it. A few weeks back my house was burglarized and my camera was stolen. The camera I had received a year ago as a gift from James and a bunch of my friends for my birthday. I had been talking about getting the camera, the Canon G11, for awhile. My digital SLR is soooo outdated and I really wanted a camera I could carry easily that would allow me to shoot manually and without delay. It was the gift of that camera that first inspired my 365 days of pictures challenge and the camera I use to photograph for this blog.

My plan was to replace the camera through financing, but then amazing things happened. James and I celebrated our 3-year anniversary last week and he gifted me half of my new camera. WHAT?!?! The following day my supervisor at work handed me an envelope with cash inside. My co-workers had pitched in and gifted me the extra money I needed to replace my camera. AMAZING!!

I was able to replace the camera I had lost and know, more than ever, that I am surrounded by the most generous and caring people. What more could you ask for? THANK YOU!!

Time to go shoot...
