Curiosities Closet Vol 9 - Our Wishlist

This is kind of an unusual curiosities closet, because it isn't stuff I like, it's stuff we, as a family, want/need. Since I am working on budgeting better, I want to factor in our wants and needs and save for them. This is my visual wish list.
Firstly, the Olympus E-620. This camera is incredible. I am really happy with the 410 that I got for Doug last year on his birthday, so I will probably just hold on to that, but I really want to get him a new one. This one is perfect.

A MUCH needed trip to Florida to see our family.
And a weekend getaway to the Madonna Inn in San Luis Obisbo.
I really really want a new mixer because I had to leave my old mixer in Tucson. There just wasn't room in the van when we moved. I miss having one. This green one is very pretty.
If you know me at all, you know I love TV. My big TV that I got as a gift from my Mom for my college graduation, was too big to bring to California so it got left behind too. We are currently borrowing a TV from our friends, but would like to get our own soon.
Everything is perfect with the beast, except the paint. Although I don't think we're going to go crazy like the one below (which is the exact same van, minus the orange detailing) it definitely does need a new paint job soon.
Annnnnnd of course, we're planning on getting iphones...I know...finally.

Whats on your summer wishlist??

xo,
Beca

  6. @Manda, I used to be a Canon girl, until i started using Olympus and I'm sold. I love everything about using an Olympus. But, do your research! It'll be worth it in the end!
    @Melisande, I love having a polaroid. I never use it because I always forget to buy film, but it's fun. Try looking at swap meets and thrift stores. They always have old polaroids!
