A couple times in the past, I've asked Maren to take a picture with my camera (a Canon Eos Rebel XS - I think- a digital SLR) and she won't do it. She always says things like, "I can't take a better picture with your camera than you can because you have a #$%^^& lens," or "I don't take pictures with crappy lenses." So, okay, I don't ask her anymore...and because I can (because she really, really likes me AND my baby), I give her a hard time about it.
So, this morning, I walk into the Children's Museum for our playdate and instantly pull out my camera. Except this time, I have a different lens on it. It's a macro lens that my sister-in-law recommended David get me for Christmas a couple years ago. Instantly Maren was all, "When did you get that good lens?" I was so proud of myself for having a non-crappy lens on my camera that I instantly moved into position to take some pictures. After a few snaps and no results (and this for sure won't surprise my husband), I realized that I had left the camera card in the computer from working on last night's blog post. Will I ever learn? Probably not, so thank goodness for cell phones.
Happy Thursday from the Central Coast!

It looks like you had a great time! I'm glad I got to see the pictures, even if they were crappy. ;)
What a great museum. I need to take the kids to the children's museum over on the other side of Portland. I hear it's a great one. And what lens did David get you? I remember talking to him about it a while back but don't remember which one I was telling him about. I love photgraphy and the right lens really will make a difference!
Lens or no lens I love the pictures you took with your phone. She has such sweet playmates.
