It was a blast. I have uploaded the pictures to the Gallery. This year I received two great portrait lenses for low lighting, and hopefully you can notice the difference in the photos.

We had a blast swapping presents around for our X-mas white elephant gift exchange and gift card exchange. It was a lot of fun. We finally got people taking each other’s gifts back and forth. It was a lot of fun.

I hope everyone had a great christmas and really enjoyed all of their presents and spending time with their friends and family.

I received two new lenses which I used at Carrie and John’s house to take this years pictures without using a flash.  Yes, there will probably be some uploaded that use a flash…. but not yet.

I hate to say it, but Laura was right.  3 classes in the middle of nowhere is just too much for me.  I had to really fight for my grades while trying to get work done on the house.   Now that it is over, I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders.  The grades are: A- for Networking Essentials, B+ for Intro to Telecommunications, and a B for Advanced Database Management.
