Only the beginning…
Greetings, readers! Lately, my life is one long car trip. We’re in Dallas again, at our customary pit stop before making the long drive to Nashville for the Annie Moses Band music camp. For the first time in a long while, I’ll be in the car for above ten hours with a whole rabble of siblings scattered in the backseat. Given the noise level on the four-hour trip this far…well, I’m not too excited about tomorrow. Ah, well—I love my earbuds.
Concerning the lack of pictures around here, we’ve been experiencing great camera troubles of late. The lovely Canons I used for the graduation shoots had to be returned to their owner (oh, the tragedy), and so I was left with a broken Kodak camera and Toni’s itsy-bitsy point-and-shoot that takes nasty-looking pictures. But oh, glorious day—Toni has decided to invest her graduation funds in a Canon EOS 50D, and I am completely thrilled. Hopefully it’ll arrive during camp, and we’ll be able to make use of it.
Lastly, my mother has started a WordPress for the sake of chronicling our adventures at camp—and hopefully beyond. So if you have a moment, head over and say hello!
Next post will be from Tennessee. See you there!

Beth, you should write a book about trips… a short book.. about the plainness of driving.. highway noises,, etc… and post it on your blog…

How exciting to get a cool camera! I got a camera for my graduation, as a gift. Only, I didn’t get it until the January after I graduated! I love using it, so much!
Have a very bright, very cheerful trip!

Thanks for congratulating my brother on winning nats. I am really proud of him.
I tagged you on my blog The Thoughts and Adventures of Gigigirl.
I hope the car trip goes well, and that you have fun at your camp.

I hate to tell you this Beth, but those excuses about not posting pictures don’t work at all. Nope, you’re not getting off the hook that easily. I think all of us (your readers) would agree that we love Toni’s point and shoot camera are much better than no pictures at all. I vote for some pictures from it!
From the nicer side of me
, hope you have tons of fun!
Ever lovingly,
Christina

Hey Beth,
I just saw Toni’s post so forget the first part of my last comment. I still vote for pictures, but now you that you have the new camera, you have no excuse. God kind of solved it all.
Love you so much girl! <3 Hope you're having an awesome time!

If only we were headed towards that area sooner, we might have been able to meet each other!
Oh well, I hope you have a blast a music camp.

Beth,
Getting a new camera in the family sounds pretty cool.
We are looking for one too, maybe even a Canon. I think it will really help out a lot with the quality of our pictures, when we buy a new one.
Thanks for sharing about the camera, it was helpful information.
