Christmas 2008~the video

Tuesday, December 30, 2008
Turn off the music at the bottom of my blog to hear this video. You can do this by clicking on the stop or pause button on the music box.




Christmas 2008 from Kim S on Vimeo.



I want my children to be able to look back on their childhood memories. I want them to remember the things we did together as a family. I doubt they'll go back and read the blog. But they might show their children a 10 minute"home movie" of their childhood Christmases. I am even going to go back and make one for last year (it was our first Christmas with Kate).

The photographic quality of this video is very disappointing. I made a Christmas video and a video of our year in review (2008) as a surprise to show the kids on New Years Eve. The quality that I needed to reduce it to post is not good.  Also, Y*utube would not accept the original music (copyright, schmopyright). So this varies a lot from what I made for our family to watch on the DVD player but I knew my Mom and sister and a few friends might still want to see it.

I will still post Christmas photos this week. I am sure most of you do not want to sit through 10 minutes of our Christmas celebrations:)

  4. Kim you did a beautiful job!!! Your children will love watching the video one day and looking back. My grown boys love to watch video's of Christmas past : )

    I put together a little slideshow on my blog from Christmas but I didn't post the one I made for us....youtube would not let me due to music issues.

    Your children are beautiful!!!!! Have a wonderful and happy New year!!! My wish for you this New Year is that 2009 will be a fantastic year for you and your family in your new home...
    God Bless my friend : )

I will be posting a video dedication to my late daughter next week..you can check it out sometime...I post most of may videos that way...faster and they whole world does not have access.

  10. Kim- What a wonderful memory for your family. I absolutely love the idea of showing the kids the videos tomorrow evening (another "mom idea" I will have to add to my bag of tricks for the future!). Hope your family has a wonder-filled New Years!
