Film vs Digital

After getting home I uploaded all of the pictures from the trip, including the ones taken by family that I was able to copy.

872 pictures

Add that to the pictures I already had for the month of June and that’s…

1229 pictures…in one month

It’s a good thing this is the digital age because if it weren’t for digital cameras that would be 52 rolls of film. So if 35mm film costs $11.99/pk-of-four 52 rolls would be 13 packages, then developing would be a minimum of $4.98 for single prints per roll plus tax.  That means that this month alone I have saved $456.31 by having a digital camera. By the time my camera has stopped working (or just by the time it becomes obsolete) it will be worth it’s weight in gold.

I wish…

We are big fans of Woot at our house (woot.com that is). We have ordered many things from this site. They have a subsection of commerce dedicated to shirts, which is where we’ve made a large portion of the orders we have placed. One of the shirts that I have from here (graphic shown) is called I Wish…

At naptime today Gavin was looking at my shirt and asked what the elephant was doing. I told him that it was supposed to be wishing on the star, so he asked what it was wishing for. Not really knowing, I asked him what he thought the elephant would wish for. (Are you ready for this?)

His response was, “A pogo stick.”

After giggling, I asked him why an elephant would wish for a pogo stick. He said it would help him reach more apples on the tree to eat.

Teaching them the ways of the geek

We are a video gaming family. We have a Wii, a PS3, a PSP, and a DS. Nate and I have seen every installment of The Guild.

Nate found some geek shirts and we had to get them – for Solvei and Nels. They are Level 1 Human shirts (fellow geeks will get the reference).

While taking pictures for this, I got one that shows Solvei’s eyes beautifully.
