My birthday came a little early!!!

I'm so excited!!!  My birthday came a bit early....20 days early to be exact!  The Hubs got everyone (aka my parents and brothers/girlfriends, his parents and grandparents) to go in together on the camera I've had my eye on!  They wanted to make sure that I had it for our big trip this week!  All I can say is LOVE.  Like tons of hearts love!  Now I just have to figure out how to use it!  I've mastered a few of the settings (my favorite being the fisheye lens) but I need to be a pro for my NYC pics!!!

Here's the little beauty:
