The New Year Scare . . .

Kelly got me a digital video camera for Christmas. We were bored one day during Christmas break and so we made this movie about the upcoming New Year.

Cami and her friend, Shannon, wrote the script and all the kids acted in it. It took us only 2 hours to write and film but then I spent over 10 hours editing the thing. A fun activity for the kids, but a major project for me.

A second script is in pre-production and will be optioned to the highest hollywood bidder.

I love it!! That was so great! The coolest thing is how little their voices will sound when they -or you- watch it in the years to come. Thats so priceless...and really, an amazing job of editing RL (aka smokin' hot husband)

Love the movie! Kids are so creative! Keep building that family home video collection....

Jaime said...

How fun. Rob you have to teach me all the editing, looks cool. The kids are just as cool as their parents.

P.s. I agree with Gina, where is the dirty house, because I didnt see one. Oh, and thanks for not having Grady's pants down on the toilet. :)

Shannon said...

Italy in 2007...France in 2008! Cannes, that is! Great movie, you guys. What a hoot!

Team Biddle said...

Cracked me up! And you'll have to save that for Grady's girlfriends...

Paige said...

Good times at the Lees. So that's what happens when husbands get time off for Christmas?

Really, I'm not going to be able to let you in my house anymore if you keep making comments about your messy-non-messy house.
