Easter Fun 2009

The weather has finally warmed up a little bit, and we’re enjoying some sunshine this Easter Weekend. The girls were really excited to hunt for Easter eggs and find their Easter baskets.

We colored eggs, and even ate a few!

We had some special visitors show up in one of the Easter baskets:

The Church posted to YouTube a video of Elder Holland, of the Twelve Apostles, talk about the Savior.

The Church’s YoutTube Channel posts new videos on a weekly basis.

Couldn’t Resist the Closed Captioning

Closed Captioning is a service offered by television stations for the hearing impaired. The service lets viewers read dialog in the show. You may have seen this feature on DVDs or other media.

YouTube has allowed publishers to upload a Closed Caption (CC) file. I thought it might be a good idea for some promotional videos I’ve done and couldn’t resist creating our first file with the video of Megan.

Below, she’s looking out a the neighbor’s dogs running around in the street.

Someone Has Two New Friends

After we had come home from watching General Conference, we were getting the kids ready for bed and Autumn starting singing a song right out of the blue. Megan joined in and sang as well. We got a kick out of it and got out the camera to have them sing it again.

I’m not sure what the political persuasion my daughters hold, but just out of the blue, Autumn started singing this song, and Megan joined in as well.

The Good Fairies

A while back, we made a video with Autumn and her magic wand. Autumn got such a kick out of watching herself disappear so we created a sequel with the two Good Fairies.

We filmed a whole lot but only a little got put into the final product. The girls loved watching themselves.

In a world…

In a world where the ruling princess has been abducted, two swashbuckling heroes begin a journey that will last a lifetime and forge an unbreakable bond of friendship. Dashing heroes and stunning sword fights envelope the quest to save the adored princess.

You’ve got to see this trailer:

I’ve always liked Sci-Fi movies. Now a captain and a cadet on a “deserted” planet deep in the heart of the galaxy find out that they’re not alone…

From the same YouTube channel, here’s another video we thought appropriate to include:
