Some traditions just stink! Like cleaning the dishes after Thanksgiving dinner. You love to eat, and you know dessert is coming, but the work ahead of you makes you think twice about it all.
I feel this way about our vacations. I love vacation, who doesn't? I love the sunshine more than anything.. but it is not just the laundry that I get anxiety about. It is making our videos after. Now... let me clear things up, I love the vacation part, and I love the end result of having our fun times documented in a way that my children love to sit and watch ad nauseum. But the work that goes into making one of these videos brings out the worst in me. Language is muttered that would make my mother wash my mouth out. Sighs that are so audible that I sound more like a semi-truck with those Jake Brakes.
When I finished up the final piece last night, my sighs turned their tune, and the language I was using sounded like a sweet song bird.

I am so pleased to post the video of my families vacation at
Black Butte Ranch we had in September.

LOL, this is Megan!!! Didn't realize I was signed in as Kevin. Although I'm sure he'd love the video, too. His comment just wouldn't be so warm and fuzzy. :)
