My Video Masterpiece

So my plan, emphasis on the word "plan", is to produce an annual video of the kids. I made a fabulous video of Braedyn from 0-6 months (apparently I was so anxious to put one together, I couldn't wait until a whole year had passed). And then I started working on Braedyn's 7-18 month video. I had major issues with this video because the Movie Maker program wasn't functioning properly on our old computer, so after logging in numerous hours of Memory Preservation (defined as: the blood, sweat and tears I put towards ensuring our family has sufficient memory keepsakes), I had to start all over again on our new computer.

Then one night, after getting about 75% done with the project, I somehow accidentally deleted the file. And let me be the first to note that I had zero wine that night, so I'm not sure what exactly went wrong. At this point, I was really discouraged, but I started over from scratch, and NOW, I am finally finished. So to celebrate this accomplishment, I made all of you - the lucky ones - a short snippet of the video. Yes, I know it's 2 minutes long, but just be thankful that it's not the entire 13 minutes that I'm forcing upon you. So just watch it and stop complaining already!! (And turn the volume up, it's better with music.)

So what do you think? I know, I know... I like it too. =)~ And to all the family members who received a copy of the last video, I hope you enjoyed this shortened version, because there's no money left in the budget to mail the video out to everyone. Okay, well... maybe the truth is that I'm just too lazy and exhausted to package it up and go to the post office, but whatever... same thing.

P.S. Happy 35th Birthday to my brother-in-law, Jason!! Hopefully this blog shout-out will erase the fact that I only remembered it was your birthday because I saw it on Facebook.
