The Christmas Tree

This was supposed to be my relaxing day but I decided to get all the gifts wrapped instead.  It's hard for me to stop when I'm on a roll.  Tomorrow is a day of enforced playtime, though.  I'll be babysitting for my sweet little friend, Casper.  At one year old, she is learning so fast and we have a wonderful time playing together.  She is the closest I'll get to having a granddaughter and I'm so happy that her mom & dad want me to be a part of her life!

As for today, I never left the house, so this is an EB long exposure of our Christmas tree.  It looks a lot better large on my PC.  I'm so looking forward to getting to know my new camera.  I have been using it but I haven't had time to read the manual and learn about its functions yet so I feel a little lost.  It's a Christmas present anyway so it's probably only right that I should wait until after Christmas to play with it.  ;-)
