This year I want my hubby to understand that I am buying the 100mm macro no matter what. But, he could buy me the grip for my Xti. Tiffany

Apr 29, 2008 10:50 | #5 All of you are great! My husband and sons have not served me breakfast in bed last year due to me shooting out of town. Then this year, the same thing. I will be enroute home from Denver. So, no breakfast in bed, but I did give that up because it was messy. My hubby helps the boys cook the breakfast, but I buy all the ingredients the day before. It's a tradition, but alas, not this year. It's sad but they always shop for the card the day before so all the good ones are usually gone, but they make something in school always. And my Hawaii son is going to call, which is a real treat, he calls only on Christmas and Mother's Day. He's on a mission. I can't wait to talk to him. My oldest son usually sends me a card and calls me. This year, I went a little nuts and just (like 30 minutes ago) ordered the 100-400 IS for myself. It's a lot of money, but what I needed. So no 200 f2 for me. I'll be happy with this. Suzie - Still Speaking Canonese!

Apr 29, 2008 21:42 | #11 I just got back from working with my 17 young women (12-18 year olds) making stuff for their Moms. I bought cheap plastic colored plates from WalMart, plain aprons, unfinished picture frames. They decorated then with fabric paint and sharpies. The plates had their Mom's names in the middle and the girls put qualities of their Mom's all around the name. They were so creative. There is one of the girls who is an artist and decorated the aprons around the names. Wow. They outdid themselves. Too bad none of those girls are mine. But their Mom's will love them.
