Kids Combine Ride

I remember getting off the bus as a kid and waiting in the yard with Mom for a chance to ride on the combine with Mr. Danny. So when he came out this year to harvest the corn, it was a perfect chance for Eden and James to help daddy live old memories vicariously to do something that I loved as a kid (as presumably all Eastern Shore kids do...right?)











One of the cooler things about homeschooling, is that a trip to the local farm (which also happens to be family) to see the miniature cows and help harvest the hay; serves double duty as a field trip.





As always you can see the whole set by following this link over to our Flickr Page.

Edens Message

Here is a message from Eden to the entire viewing audience (since she has now learned that she is famous!). The pictures were picked by her, in the video she did all her own stunts, and picked her favorite song for the sound track. The message is transcribed from her own words.

So without further ado;



Hi everybody, I love the song Saily Away, it was my favorite song. We used to all ride in the 4Runner and I used to listen to it and I really like it.

Listen to this video and watch it, you will see what I really like about this part. I like the part where I was holding the iPod, it doesn't really work but I was holding it.

This day of my video is a special day, Jamesy has one too. Send me back a message and say "Hello Eden".

BYE!!

6 Years In 4 Minutes

UPDATE: We've got the images used in this video posted as a set on Flickr if you wanted to see any of them individually. You can find them here.

Something I've been wanting to do for a while is put together some sequential pictures of the kids over the years into a small video. The quality isn't exactly world class, but I think it gets the point across:

WERE LOSING OUR GIRL! Just kidding :)

She is becoming quite the little lady now-a-days though. Sorting and picking through the photos to use was quite an experience in itself!
