My First Video

Let's just say that I'm never the first person to learn how to use some new, cool piece of technology.  I'm usually nearly the last - only my husband would be further behind, actually. So, I bought Newt a point and shoot digital camera for Father's Day.  He does a lot of riding in his truck during the day, and he always spots some crazy creature along his route.  He tells us about them when he gets home, but, of course, we don't believe him! So, now he can document his sightings.  I thought it would be cool to make a little book for Meg with all of the creatures in there. 

Anyway, I digress...I used the camera the other night to take a video of Meg in her last t-ball game, and it is a hoot. I finally figured out how to get her hair to stay in a ponytail and stick out the back of her hat.  Before she looked like Forrest Gump running from base to base with a stiff red cap slammed down, but yet still riding high on her head full of hair. In this video, she looks like a little girl playing t-ball, not Forrest. I am pleased that we figured out how to do this on the last week of the season. Go figure...

So here's to my first attempt at film (or digital) or whatever records that stuff in there.
