Our New Toy

For the longest time I have been on a lookout for a new camera.We really needed a new one. I was debating to either get a wishblade or a new camera it can't be both so the camera won.The best part is I didn't have to fall in line to buy it. I just have to wait for it. Hopefully it will be here by Dec 5.
