blast from the past

I've decided to add a new "feature" to our little family blog.

It came to me as my children and I stumbled across an old video on the computer, and I thought to myself, "Why didn't this make it onto our blog???"

And myself answered: "Because you are LAZY!"

I couldn't argue with that.

But then I thought, I can go ahead and do what I want with this blog, and I want to start adding in things that I had wanted to post, but never got around to it. And I will go ahead and call these posts "Blast from the past," so that way I will come across as cool and clever, instead of lazy and procrastinating.

Brilliant!

I have so much that has been neglected, I'm thinking this can be a weekly thing. Fingers crossed I keep it up!

Todays blast from the past was the video that inspired the whole idea.

It was taken by my BFF/Sister-in-law Janay, while we were in Canada for Christmas December 2009.

FOUR YEARS AGO!

I don't like sounding like an old lady, but really! Time does fly.

Watch and enjoy:




The whole reason we wanted this video was so we could capture the cute way she said purple. The spitting was just an unexpected bonus, as was the cute "Hi" at the end.

This video makes me a little too homesick, and it makes me miss my can-barely-speak-little-two-year-old Lena… :(

BUT! I am grateful for cameras to capture the memories, and this blog to store them all nice and neat for me. Lena is going to be so grateful for this when she's an easily embarrassed teenager.
