It Snows in Utah

Joshua Ray and I went up Bog Cottonwood Canyon for a little outdoor adventure. I was so happy to see a sunny sky a few days ago so out we went. We decided on snowshoeing for our activity. We got to try our fancy new camera for the first time. Here's what happened:

Josh was a gentleman and waited up for slow-poke me.

Josh looked H-O-T, what else is new?

I toppled over a few times.

We were surrounded by beautiful scenery.

Josh tried our new camera out. I learned that when you have a good quality picture taken of yourself it's best to wear some makeup, which I did not do.

Josh told me to watch out for bears and made me extremely paranoid. My imagination made me keep seeing them off in the distance, that part wasn't so fun. I don't want to be mauled to death by an animal, remember?

The end.

So fun! I am happy to see you enjoying the snow! Woohoo! And your camera is great!

Wow! Great pictures! What kind of digital SLR did you end up with? I'm sort of debating between a Nikon and a Canon (image stablization and speed are huge for me 'cause of the wiggle worm I have at home) but I think your pictures are great so I'd love to know what kind of camera it is and if the functions are user-friendly.

Oh and by the way, Makeup Schmakeup! You look fantastic! But it's hard to be objective when it's a shot of your own mug. The latest picture of me on our blog makes me look like a Jack Nicholson version of myself; yikes!
