Small Pleasures

Look at my pretty little new phone!!

The battery on my old phone was so bad I had to charge it up constantly so I checked and I was eligible for a new phone. We couldn't afford to get the new iPhone but we did move up one notch to the 4S, which after turning in our old phones, will only cost us $30 a piece. Ernie stayed with his basic black phone and basic black case. I decided I deserved a new case....and LOOK how cute....and then I found the little matching button!!!! Ernie rolled his eyes. I was so tickled that I think that even the Verizon guy and others at the counter rolled their eyes too....but I don't CARE! I love my personalized polka dot button!

And now a few snaps that my new little phone took:

oh, first I tried to figure out the panorama feature...took a few tries but I kind liked this first attempt even though it looks like my colleague Nancy is drowning...

here's my cute husband:
