You might recall that we bought this small hybrid dslr/point-n-shoot camera called the Pen. And that last November I surprised Chuck with this huge, heavy, high quality 50-200mm f/2.8 lens. So, for his birthday he got the lens adapter for the Pen which allows using our normal dslr lenses. Here's the little camera wielding the big gun...

He also got the 20 mm f/1.7 prime lens for the Pen so now it can (almost) fit in your pocket. In addition to better low-light than the kit-lens, it's taking better quality pictures.
The day his presents were due to survive (thank you, B&H!), I was sick with a stomach bug. Chuck took the day off the help me - and to play with his new toys. Here's his test shot with the new 20mm.

Ok, enough of the boring photography stuff...Here's what we did for his birthday (besides take pictures):
Friday night we had a game night with his friends. He also got a new game called Dominion, and we had a great time playing it. (I didn't take any pics).
Monday, Labor Day, his parents, cousin, and sister and their families came to visit. Chuck barbequed and we just enjoyed a day of being together. Thanks for traveling down, y'all!
Hendrix enjoyed the train.
