Today was so beautiful I decided to go outside and snap a few pictures with my new camera. I did not get many as I got sidetracked quickly….what else is new?
I did manage to get my son Alex in a great mood today and he was a willing participant, not for long though!
 |
| Not bragging or anything, but the texting hotline for my son is ridiculous with the girls! He looks so serious! |
 |
| THis picture I stood in front of my house, it is a shot all the way down the end of the block |
 |
| This is some of the neighbors landscape, I like this bush or plant or whatever you call it. |
 |
| My Jack after a very long day at the skate park..just kinda zoning. |
 |
| Some are happy, some are sad! |
 |
| THis is way deep into the woods, look at the branches, and see the cool squirrel’s nest? |
And oh me oh my look what us South Carolinians woke up to this morning! It is absolutely beautiful!
Every kid must eat snow at least once! I told Jack I sure hope there was no doggie pee pee on it….
I hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas. Hard to believe all the hustle and bustle and baking and wrapping is all gone now. Have a wonderful day all, I can tell you we will for sure!
For those of you who have asked me what kind of camera Mike bought me:
It is The Panasonic LUMIX
Fz35 18X Optical zoom.
My husband researches things to death before he make a purchase. For the money and all the outstanding reviews, I can see why he chose this camera for me. I love it, and have a lot to learn, but so far it has been a great camera to work with. Without the MEGA pricetag, it has all the bells and whistles I can want before leaping into a really expensive one.

Gorgeous photos, Deb!
I wondered if you had snow there! Have fun taking pics! Your boys are cuties!
Debbie- Well, your pictures are great but your sons are absolutely beautiful (and I KNOW THEY don't want to hear that)! Your oldest son is a heartbreaker for sure…and the little one? Following right in the footsteps…cuz he is gorgeous too.
Glad you had a snowy Christmas-you must have felt like you woke up in a fairy-tale! GREAT PHOTOS- I need to look at getting a better camera one of these days…of course in my case, it is not so much the CAMERA as it is the OPERATOR!
Hugs- Happy Holiday! Diana
Great photos, Deb. Your young men are very handsome. I love the photo of your snow blanketed street.
Have fun with your new toy. I look forward to the many beautiful shots you will get with this camera.
lovely photos, thats a real cool one of Alex, the bush is called a pampas grass, cold snow brrr, but fun as I recall.
Great shots, Debbie. I want the grown up camera next, too. That money tree needs to grow in the back yard. You got the same snow we did.
Great pictures! Your sons are real cuties.Have fun playing in the snow it is so rare for us at Christmas.
I look forward to seeing bunches of pictures with your new camera!

Great pictures. Everything looks wonderful and you seem to have mastered the basic of your new camera. The boys are so handsome. Glad you had a super Christmas. Hugs, Marty
Yep Debbie, those girly girls are going to be lining up the street, and sneaking to his window. LOCK up!! He's a looker!!!
Sounds like you had a happy day. Love the pics with your new camera. I adore mine..it's a Nikon…and I may never learn all of it's potential.
Here's to a wonderful new year ahead!!
Merry Christmas! I got a new camera for Xmas also. Have fun in the snow!
Beautiful pics Debbie. We got 5" of snow here in NC. Have a great day, Vicky
Great pics…enjoy your new camera! I was watching the weather channel this morning & I can't believe the snow you guys are getting. Have fun!
Great pics!! Good lookin' boys so I can see why the girls are text crazy! 😉 Enjoy the new camera!!!
You must have been a "good" girl for "Santa." 🙂 Nice shots of the boys and the snow. We have the snow, just no sun…. Glad you had a great Christmas, Debbie! ♥ Sue
Beautiful shots Debbie!
Hope you had a wonderful holiday!! I got a new camera too but haven't had a chance to have a play date yet. 🙂

Congratulations on your new camera! Good for you! Your son is, indeed, very, very handsome.
Take care and have a wonderful day. Wow, I didn't know the south got snow like that. Gorgeous! Susan
Great pics! Oh, and I can see why the texting hotline for your son is ridiculous with the girls, he is a cutie! We (Kentucky) also woke up to lots of snow – for the second day in a row! It was beautiful and so nice to have a white Christmas this year.
Hi Debbie,
i tuoi figli sono bellissimi !!!!
Sicuramente avranno una grande quantità di ragazze !!!!
Buona domenica 🙂
Myriam
You new toy is fab! Merry Christmas Deb.
Great photos and great looking sons!
It is not over with just yet at my house, since our big celebration will be next weekend, but think I will start putting some things away this afternoon.
Have a great day!
Oh Lucky you Snow for the kids to remember on Christmas break! 2 years ago we had snow on Christmas Eve and into the morning and it made it so very special one that they will remember forever! Merry Christmas Debbie sounds like Santa was very very good to you!
Great Pictures Deb- your boys are so cute! Isn't that something, we aren't getting any snow and you are! Of course we got 42" already, but it came to a near halt here…soon it will pick up, it always does. Have fun with the snow!
Merry Christmas girlfriend!!! Your pictures are beautiful!!!! We seriously need a girls photo weekend! You have some seriously good looking boys there! So excited for you!
All those shots were taken within 48 hours or a bit more? What a weather change!
Great shots. Have fun playing with your new tool/toy. (Work should be fun.)
Here in northern WI snow was predicted but has passed me over.
We had enough last week to satisfy me for a while. Stay safe.
Hi Debbie Dear! Oh, what a handsome son you have. No wonder the girls are loving him! 🙂 Love his curly hair, too. So glad you're loving your new camera! Your snaps look great! I wanted a new camera, but since we did a little remodeling this year, I hated to ask again. 🙁
You got some snow!! Hope your Christmas was wonderful. Blessings for the new year!!
Shelia 🙂
Love the image of your son. I am so happy you have a new camera. We have snow here also and it has been a fun day!
Lucky you! Love your wonderful photos — what handsome sons you have. We're a Winter Wonderland here in the mid-Atlantic as well — it's not supposed to stop until tomorrow morning! Glad I'm off until January 3rd!
I got the same camera three weeks ago…my Nikon D40 is so jealous. I absolutely LOVE the Lumix!!!!!
The pictures look great, Debbie. The boys are cute!
What a great gift! :)I love my Lumix…it takes great videos too!
Glad you had a nice Christmas and a fun day in the snow! 🙂
What great photos your camera takes!!! Have fun playing with it!
Fabulous photos Debbie! I love that you got a picture of the snow. I thought about it but honestly it was too cold outside for me! So I enjoyed the snow from the warmth of my house. Now sitting here at 9 at night it's almost gone 🙁
I can't wait to see more of your great photography!
Great pictures! I really need to work on learning about the gadgets on my own camera!
Love all your Photos. You did a great job. Watch out for yellow snow and have a great day.
Great shots and good looking boys, Debbie!..Christine
Nice pics…jealous, I am of your new camera! What wonderful photos! Question–the first one of your son–is that a camera sepia effect or is that photo editing software? I've just never seen such a great digitally processed sepia before.
Merry Christmas! I love all the decor! That blue tablecloth is fun…I just watched the German Week episode of Are You Being Served, so it made me giggle thinking of that! So glad I stopped by!
Your boys are very handsome. I can see why the girls are after your older one. I would be too at his age. Terry
The kids are gorgeous!! And I saw the snow!! Oh my! I love how your sunny weather turned into that!
Oh girl you are going to love that! I cannot wait to see more of your interesting shots. These photos really look great! I would love a new camera someday, but I need to learn more basics about photography first. I bet you guys did get quite a bit more snow then we did, up there. I hope you are staying warm and enjoying it!
So beautiful picture including your elder son's… some scenic views are stunning…
Wish you a very Happy New Year
I would love if you come to visit me at

Your sons are SO HANDSOME!
You are going to have a TON of fun with the new camera~I have one on my wishlist, but don't think I'll see one for awhile, lol.
Oh that bush (pamapas grass, or saw grass) is very lovely to look at, but don't stick your hand in it~ their stalks HURT!

A new camera, how fun! Your son is a handsome guy. Love all those nature shots.
Christmas Blessings!

Well you're doing great with yours. I got one too but I haven't had time to read the 69-page user manual and I know I'm not adjusting properly. So you make me feel better. At least someone is! Happy New Year. Jane
Wow, what fantastic pictures, Debbie! Your boys are adorable! If you discover any great photography websites, please let me know. I got a new camera for xmas too! Thanks for sharing XOXO ~Liz
Much better photos Deb! Especially without all the extra editing to them. Less is more!
I have a Lumix too… although I had gotten it three years ago – May be time to update it this year. For the past year, just been shooting with my cell phone…
Best wishes to you and your family for all good things to come your way for the upcoming NEW year!!

Excellent pics. Thanks for sharing the name of the camera.
