In The Motherhood 2008-03-04 21:47:28 I was contacted recently from someone associated with this web show called "In the Motherhood
". I don't normally respond to these kind of requests for me to advertise things on my blog, but I have to admit, this one sounded interesting (plus, they offered me some goodies :) ). Check it out! What I think is interesting about this is that the audience participates in a contest where they write a story that has a chance to appear in the episodes.

Picture Perfect 2007-07-26 12:03:52 Click to Play Music: Turkish Delight - David Crowder Band We finally got around to importing the pictures from Jordan's Fisher Price camera. There were close to 700 pictures on there! Jordan and I sat down together and picked out some of them to include in this slideshow. She sat with me and watched while I put most of it together so this is our first real team effort. I enjoyed going through them and seeing from a childs perspective the things that were worthy of snapping photos of. Enjoy!Formats available: Quicktime Read more:Picture

60 Years: Their Reaction 2007-06-04 21:18:06 Quicktime | FlashThrough the wonderful world of technology and video, I was able to see my grandparents reaction to the slideshow I created. My Dad sent me the footage later, so I decided to combine it with the previous video. This will be long and boring for most people, but it personally means a lot to me! Read more:Years
5 Years in 5 Minutes 2007-06-04 14:46:41 Quicktime | FlashOnce again, the time has come! Yes, videoblogging week is upon us again. I need to get back to posting regularly again and what better time to start. Here is my first installment. My plan is to not worry too much about polished editing this week... except for this one required some time.

- Rober Morgan FisherThis video is the result of a conversation on Twitter (if you don't know what Twitter is, go check it out... it's hard to explain!) People are always thinking about, needing, wanting or on their way out to get some coffee. This one's for MissB who hopefully will enjoy my little package and she even promised to make a video in return. Looking forward to it!

Success!! 2007-04-11 10:10:30 Quicktime | FlashI realize Videoblogging Week '07 is officially over, but I didn't get a chance to post my last two entries, so I'm doing it late. Today we hit a very important milestone. We have been working on this for awhile now, but Maddy has been quite slow to learn how to deal with "#2". Today she finally got it! I figured since Trine did one of these, I would do one also! This is a very happy day for parents. So long diapers!!!videobloggingweek2007 Read more:Success
First Pictures 2007-04-11 01:17:54 Quicktime | FlashMusic courtesy of Podsafe Music NetworkEast Side Bar - Josh WoodwardYesterday, was Jordan's birthday and we gave her a Fisher Price Kid-Tough Digital Camera. Everytime I get my camera out, Jordan wants to take pictures with it, but I'm a little protective of it because it's the only one I have. She took pictures with it for the rest of the day... and loved it. It definately isn't the best picture quality, but I wasn't really expecting it to be. The funniest thing was explaining to her that to her that she needed to take pictures of things that weren't moving so her pictures wouldn't turn out blurry. She got so frustrated when Maddy wouldn't stay still... finally understanding why I get so frustrated trying to get her to stay put!These are the first pictures she took with i Read more:First

Telephone 2007-04-07 00:43:24 Quicktime | FlashHere's some footage that I intended to post a long time ago and kind of forgot about. We were vacationing after Christmas in Myrtle Beach, and Maddy was having a pretend phone conversation with my brother (uncle Steve). They don't get to see him often, so I know this will mean a lot to him because I know he misses them.She's a little mixed up on the lyrics of "I Love Rock 'n Roll"... but she has it straight now :)"I Love Rock 'n Roll, two-one-two-one-two-one slow!"videobloggingweek2007
Don't Smile! 2007-04-03 23:53:28 Quicktime | FlashOn our way home after picking up my mom from the airport today, we stopped at IHOP for brunch. Maddy was upset with us for ordering her a funny face pancake instead of the chicken fingers she wanted. She tried so hard to stay mad... but couldn't quite maintain an angry expression. I'm not really sure what kid wouldn't want a funny face pancake!Trying out widescreen for iPod. Hopefully it'll work!videobloggingweek2007 Read more:Smile
PodCamp Atlanta Recap 2007-03-19 11:25:39 I will post a video eventually of all the random footage I took. I really am not great at taking photos and video during these events, so I don't have much to work with! Here's a photo I found on the PodCamp Atlanta
flickr pool from our Meet the Vloggers panel on saturday.All in all, it was a great weekend. Charlie and I and Chris Daniel hung out outside the main hall most of the morning. We talked videoblogging for a good bit and then eventually met the other panelists after lunch. Our panel, led by Ben Ramsey, went OK... but the 45 minutes we had was simply not enough. We ended up answering a lot of questions on the "hows" of videoblogging and very little on the "whys"... but I think that was only because we just didn't have the time. We talked a lot about Blip.tv too and how much we lov Read more:Recap
Lots going on! 2007-03-02 23:34:22 I've had quite a bit going on in the last while, so again, excuse that lack of videos showing up in the feed lately! I just wanted to make a post and let you know about a few things going on with me.First of all, I started a blog! That's right.. an old fashioned text blog :) I've actually never really had one of those before. I jumped straight to vlogging and skipped right over blogging and podcasting. Check out Kid Quotables. To some of you, this will just be another boring Mommy/family blog, but for those of you who are amused by funny kid stories, be sure to visit and subscribe!Secondly, I've started a new project for my church. I recently joined our church's media team and have introduced them to the world of videoblogging. I've set up a church video podcast for them here. I'm really e
Mornings 2007-02-24 09:34:57 Quicktime | Flash As soon as we crawl out of bed.. this is what you would see at our house. With Jordan starting school in August... mornings are never going to be the same around here! Pretty soon, it will be a mad dash to get a lunch made, school bag packed and Jordan off to school. No more laid back mornings like this! I'm excited for Jordan to be starting school, but I will miss this too. As you can see, coffee and TV are a large part of our morning :P Read more:Mornings

Ripley's Aquarium 2007-02-11 21:31:24 Quicktime | Flash (via blip.tv)Music courtesy of the Podsafe Music Network PanFlute Fusion - Guardian Mind MixHere are some clips from our visit to Ripley
's Aquarium
at Myrtle Beach. Although I missed getting it on tape... Maddy got kissed by a stingray! She was leaning over, watching them, and one of them swam by and brushed her cheek (and that's why she is smiling at the end of the video).
Our Little Mermaid 2007-02-07 09:57:49 Quicktime | Flash (via blip.tv)Windows Media PlayerMaddy is crazy about Little Mermaid, and also has been quite the little singer these days. She gets shy when you ask her to sing, but I happened to capture this when she didn't know I was paying much attention.

Vacation Charlie 2007-01-12 22:11:53 Quicktime | Flash (via blip.tv)We recently kicked off the new year by going on vacation for a week to Myrtle Beach. I've taken a lot of video since Christmas, so instead of trying to put it all together into one huge edited project, I'll be sharing smaller clips of some of the fun moments we had over the holidays. That being said, this is a small clip of Charlie
switching to "vacation mode". He gets a little silly sometimes. He says it's all for the girls, but I don't know... :) Read more:Vacation
New Camera! 2007-01-02 11:09:45 Leaving tomorrow for vacation, but wanted to share with you what my wonderful husband bought me for our 8th anniversary (which was yesterday). Sorry.. no video post today, but there will be soon, with some good quality video from my new Panasonic PVGS300! This is the camera I've been wanting for awhile and it was a total surprise. Not sure I will be able to post this week, but I'm definately bringing my camera and will be working on editing some movies. Happy New Year to all!! Read more:Camera
Computer Crash 2006-12-24 00:07:13 Normally, I don't post unless I have a video, but the videos have been coming a bit slow these days if you haven't noticed. Some of you have asked what's up, and my answer up until today would have been that life has gotten really busy over the holiday season. I definately haven't lost my interest in videoblogging. Today though, I went to check my email first thing in the morning, and a strange noise was coming from my computer. It then froze, and now will not start back up. It appears as though my hard drive has failed, and I've most likely lost everything on it. Fortunately... all my videos were backed up, but most everything else including that last 6 months of photos was lost. This makes me very sad :( Luckily, my computer is still under warranty, so after Christmas I hope to get it ru Read more:Computer
Love Rescue Me 2008-03-17 08:09:25 Some of you know that I work with video production at my church. It's always cool to see your work on the big screen... especially when your kids are in the video! Last night, the contemporary worship band had their annual "Come to the Cross" worship celebration. My friend and co-worker Patrick and I created this as a click track to go along with the song, and I thought it came out really nice! Of course, I'm probably a little biased... yes, that is Maddy in the video :)Formats available: iPod Read more:Rescue
