History of our remembering

Over the 43 years that we have been married, we have gone through many methods of remembering occasions.  First there were snapshots taken with the cheapest camera we could find.  The pictures were ok.

This our daughter and her cousins with their Irish Setter puppies.  

Then we moved up a little in camera quality.

This is our 2 on the first day of school.  E is in Kindergarten and A is in 3rd grade.  What a cute pair they are!

Then, of course, we moved up again in camera quality, just a little.

This is our granddaughter Emily.

All of this leads up to the fact that now we have a 
 Fuji Fine Pix S5100 with a 10x optical zoom
 Samsung SL620 point and shoot that resides in my purse
 Canon EOS Rebel xsi with several lenses
and a
 Sony Handycam HDR-CX150

This is my Christmas, Thanksgiving, Halloween Cactus.  John took this picture yesterday with the Canon.



Do you think we have gotten a little out of hand?  All of this leads up to the point of this entry!

Two weeks ago we, for some odd reason, decided to start organizing our photographs that were not in albums and that happened to be a lot.  We found 5 shoe boxes full.  Oh my, this was more than I bargained for.  It was a long and arduous task, but it is finally done!!!!!!!!!  I am so proud of us, that we didn't quit half way through.  Surprisingly we actually threw away a good many (still should get rid of many more).  Today I am putting the boxes, all neatly labeled, away.
