I hate that we can't have it all in life! :)
Long story short, I knew that Jeff and I were not on the same page about getting a dog and I didn't want it to cause any more frustration, so, therefore, I chose to save for the camera. I know that many of you would have chosen the dog, but I know that one day we will get a little puppy. I am dying to get back into photography since it is a passion of mine and I really hope to be able to sell some of it. (who knows if that will happen, though)
So I did some more shopping (since I have been shopping for a camera for a long time) and once again had to chose between a Canon and a Nikon. Canons are great and seem to have a little bit more features in the camera, but you can do those same things in Photoshop if you get a Nikon. Ive been told that I will be happy with either one, they are both great cameras, it is just a matter of what brand you like more.
My dad has a Nikon and he mentioned that I should also get one so that we can share lenses. What a great idea! Lenses are the bulk of the expense for cameras, anyways. So, I decided to go with the Nikon D90 that comes with at 18-105 mm lens. It is not the fanciest camera out there, but I think it will be perfect for me to get started with SLR camera. Hopefully after just a few months of saving, I can go get this new toy! :)
Here a link to check out it's cool features.

That was a tough choice! I'll be your first customer as soon as you get your Camera. Nick and I have been needing to get new pictures together... we might even get Frodo a haircut and let him join. And you'll get a puppy, don't worry. I'm really proud of you, I don't think that I would have waited for the delayed gratification of the camera.
Hurry up and get it, will you?, so you can teach me how to use mine! Love my D90 - don't think you can go wrong with a Nikon.
Yer dear 'ol dad.
