The kids have been excited to make another movie for some time. We just never seem to have the time to put together the scenes, shoot them, and create the actual movie. Today we did because we didn’t head over to Mom’s house for Sunday dinner. This is the first time in a LONG time that we didn’t go over. It wasn’t that we were uninvited (we probably should be uninvited at times, but I digress…), but rather that Mom and Dad spent the weekend in St. George and didn’t want to try to stress and figure out a way to get home just for family dinner. I can’t blame them at all.
After church, Kris and I had choir practice to go to and once we got back, Kris worked on dinner and the kids and I worked on the movie. I decided to let them have total creative license on this one. I just wanted to be the camera man and let them figure out the story, setting, and scenes. They invited Paige over from next door and away they went – designing their masterpiece. While they worked on the script and story, Kiki and Lexi beat me up on chutes and ladders. It was a good time.
The kids did a great job and we shot and produced the movie in record time. I think the kids are happy with it.
All in all a good Sunday.
