So I met up with my father & step-mother today to catch up & spend time. When we were leaving, he presented me with a gift - something I remember admiring from childhood and basically being secretly obsessed with. I remember telling him a while ago that if he ever thought about getting rid of it that I would take it off his hands.
A Canon EOS Rebel S camera. Yes, it's 35mm and takes REAL film but it's such an AWESOME CAMERA!! I'm so excited about it. It's a SLR camera (I really wanted one last spring during tax time & had to settle with something a little less) and he even still had the instruction manual!
As another great thing that happened today, I went with a friend & her two children to Goebberts Farm to look at over-priced pumpkins, see a bunch of animals, drink hot cider, get cider doughnuts, eat grilled corn on the cob & basically walk around and enjoy time together. It was pretty fun.
I find myself conflicted with the animal part of the farm. They're in small cages and don't seem very happy or interested in doing anything (though some of them enjoy the constant treats from all the children & adults passing by).

Now, I'm not too sure what these animals have to do with fall & halloween but it was fun anyway! Especially if you love animals - like me!
