Wipeout

Have you heard of the tv show Wipeout?  We discovered it on abc.com and ended up watching the whole season gathered as a family around the computer (not all in one sitting of course.=) It's a reality show obstacle course. Each week 25 new contestants see who's the last one standing in the fastest time. Hilarious!!! You can see episodes on Youtube.com

One night after watching, we were headed to the living room for family prayer. That's when we realized why Izzy had left that evening's episode early. She was inventing her own obstacle course. I had to get it on video and made a fun movie to tie it all in together.  Hope you enjoy.


For those of you that may have missed last year's movie for Glen when he was deployed, it's here below. We watch it from time to time just because the kids are so cute. I can't believe Glen hasn't even been back a year yet. It seems like that part of our lives was another lifetime ago. We're extremely grateful to have him home this year.  Hope you enjoy (or re enjoy) our Christmas movie. 

Glen's Christmas Present

What do you get a man for Christmas?  He's hard enough to shop for as it is.  So what do you get a man who's overseas and will just have to pack something back home with him?  He doesn't really need anything ... or does he?  If we could send us, we would cuz we sure need him for Christmas.  But since that's not possible, I discussed it w/ the kids.  They don't have decorations out there.  He doesn't get to see the pretty Christmas lights at night like we do.  He doesn't get to have the constant reminder of a Christmas tree like we do.  So what could we do?  ...  Tah dah!  We sent him a Homemade Christmas Survival Kit.  It included homemade decorations, a small lighted Christmas tree, and a homemade movie of all our fun and hard work.=)  He finally got his package this morning (his night) so I wanted to share the movie we made for him.  It was so much fun to make and we've watched it often as it reminds us of how much fun we had sharing ourselves w/ him for Christmas.  It brings a smile to my kids faces everytime.  Only 7 weeks left to go?  We're finally starting to count down ... but not too much as that seems to slow the time down.  Merry Christmas everyone!!!  Click on the ? to watch.

Hope you like this movie too.  We have this 

Jamie's first movie (on the mac)

This was such a fun movie to make.  The kids had a Primary Activity back in June and Izzy was in la la land most of the time while Andrew had so much fun.  Sorry it's not so clear, but you get the idea.  Enjoy!!!
