No, Christmas isn't over - we'll be doing family stuff this evening and tomorrow. I'm talking about the Advent Calendars that the 3 of us have enjoyed over the last 24 days. It was a first for all of us. Joan's coffee calendar was a bit hit; Murphy has had a lot of fun with each new toy; and Joan made sure I had something fun with each calendar opening. I do believe this will be a family tradition in the future.
Murphy has come to appreciate each new toy unveiling; he gets excited when Joan brings the calendars into the living room each morning.
Speaking of Murph, and we frequently are, he has enjoyed several outings on this beautiful Christmas Eve Day. It is 76º as of 3:30 this afternoon. Nice! On one of the outings, I brought the Sony camera with the 85mm lens on it. This boy is not a poser like Rufus, Izzy, and Molly were - you have to be fast to catch him looking... and this camera lets me be fast.
Here are a few views as we walked around the courtyard...
He is behind a bench on this shot - easy to get with the articulating screen on the camera...
I really enjoy the shallow depth of field on this lens when using it wide open - his face and eyes are sharp while everything else falls off.
He hopped up on a deck box, and I got these...
Cute boy, good camera. Merry Christmas!
