With the BBQ...I just sent a post on your blog. It is a adoption/bloggy bash. Passey's, Tiff, Denny and Joe, Jenning's, Circe, White's (they live in Alpine and just got home in Oct.), Lisa and Tate, Lisa from Georgia, Julie and Tess, Brown's, Jensen's and you have been invited. I think it will be great. We will start at 6:30 ish. Hope you can come if you are in town and feeling well!

Hi Erin,
I have been following your blog for a while and just love it! Your family is beautiful. I am a member of the church, too. We have 4 biological children and one adopted from China also. We live close to Nashville TN. I wanted to ask you about your camera and what lens you use? I looked for an email on your profile but didn't see one so I thought I would just leave a comment and ask. I love your photos. You do a great job with them! You can either leave a comment back or email me @ msm4680@bellsouth.net
Thank you so much!
Heather

Hi Heather!! You are so kind. I am flattered! My camera is a Canon Rebel XT EOS, but I am saving for a Canon EOS 5D Mark ll. My lens is a Canon 85mm 1.4 Prime lens. Prime lenses give beautiful background softness. I also have a macro lens for close-ups, but I almost always use my 85mm. It takes a few days to get used to, but I LOVE it now!!! I have been taking photography classes, and I now think my old photos look pretty bad, but I am slowly learning, and switching to manual. Thanks for asking. The best to your family. We sure do have loads in common. Do you have a blog?
