Christmas - Mr. B style

Mr. B arrived yesterday. Because of some bad traffic he was a little late, but who cares, he got here!!! We put on our snazzy clothes and headed to my office Christmas party. The party was a blast and I'll post more about it at another time.

After the party we came back to my place, and it was time to exchange presents. MY presents were wrapped in:

Yes, you see it - FUZZY DUCK PAPER!!! Mr. B rocks!!

Okay - present # 1 - new data cards for my camera. Which was cool. But they weren't the right kind for my camera. No biggie - it was sweet of him to do.


The next present was new rechargeable batteries for my camera. But they don't fit my camera. Being a good girl, I just smiled and thanked him and would figure out how to return it later.



The next thing I opened - a new camera bag!! This was sweet... just have this little bag that barely holds my camera.


It obviously had something it it - it's was heavier than a camera bag should be. He had teased me about all kinds of different things over the last couple weeks, so I had no idea what to expect.

I didn't expect what was in it:



A brand new, Canon EOS Digital Rebel. Oh. My. Gosh.

Yes, I cried... I couldn't believe he did that. I love taking pictures and get so frustrated with my old camera! This is just... one of the best presents EVER.

Thank you Mr. B.

PS - I Love you.

So, what'd you get him? A ring?

Great gift Mr. B. I have that same camera and it's great. I just wish I knew what it's true potential was. All I've done is point and shoot.
If you out the details let me know.
