One of the things Steven game me for Christmas is a FLIP Video Camera. It is just GREAT!! I'd never even seen or heard of these lil gadgets, so I was in for a real SURPRISE!!! Anyway, it holds up to 30 minutes of video, and is pocket-sized, so you can take it anywhere! Everything is included, and it has endless possibilities. It has a USB connection built-in, so you can plug it in to the computer and upload video ANYTIME. It has a Cable converter so you can plug it into the TV and watch it on the big screen! And when you fill up your 30 minutes, save it to your computer (if it's worth keeping) and you're ready to keep on recording!
Here are a few videos for your enjoyment!
Video #1: PICKLE GOLF
Steven & I had this HUGE jar of pickles, and every now and then you'd bite down on something that felt like crystal. It was terrible, so when I'd finally had enough...here's what we did with the rest... (sorry that part of the video is sideways...oops!)
Video #2: Birthday Songs
This one is mainly for relatives, and for Mary, too! (Hey- we are somewhat related, right?) Steven's dad and lil sister both have birthdays on the same day. We thought we'd capture the moment through song best. Mary, you can see how long Max's hair is...& he's naked! YIKES!!! ha ha ha
Video #3: Gift Time!
This one, too, is for the family. It was fun to be there while presents were opened, and so we wanted to feel like you didn't miss out on anything...so here you go! We only taped the part where they opened our gifts (didn't want you to get TOO bored...). We didn't tape dinner, but it was DE-LISH. Jeanne fixed a heck-a meal this time! One night was pork steaks (Mmmmm good!), and the next was sesame chicken & crab rangoon! It was luscious, for real!!! Sorry you missed out...we ate enough for you, though (don't worry!)

(well...I guess I will have to upload these at a later time, but probably NOT...I have been sitting here ALL DAY, and my internet is so CrAzY that it stopped in the middle of it, b/c my connection was lost, and I REFUSE to sit here another day if this is what it's gonna be like!).

Yeah, uploading videos to blogger is frustrating. You might talk to Emily, who uses some other way to get videos/pictures uploaded to her blog. Still, it's the thought that counts, right? It sounds like the videos will be entertaining, if you are willing to save them until the next time some of us are home :)
Until then, keep having fun with the videorecording!
Have you tried uploading your videos to Youtube or google video instead? Youtube will give you a better quality video, but you'd have to make the vid public to put it on your blog. Google video's quality stinks, but you can set it to where it can't be searched out (which is nice for privacy), but you can still post it on here. I only use blogger video if it's a REALLY short clip
Girl, don't get me started on internet issues!! Argh...I share your frustration in wanting to share, but technology not helping get it done!
LOVE the Flip camera...you'll have some good times with it ;)
Hope you two are happy & well!
