mama's new lens

I'm embarrassed to admit that I know very little about my camera.  

I love to point & shoot...a lot.  But, as far as understanding how you get good shots...i'm lost. 

Thanks to my friend Jenn, I'm beginning to have more knowledge and it's so fun to play with it now!  Shane got me a 50mm 1.8 lens and I'm taking a class in Baltimore this weekend.  

My poor kids.  Their children will thank me one day that I have one million pics of their cute faces.  

I practiced in Manual yesterday- for the first time ever.  

It wasn't as scary as I thought!
