Last year was definitely the year I fell in love with video.
And I had a permanent smile glued to my face
as I edited this together.
Video captured special moments that would be so easily forgotten;
the minute details of Christmas Day for my little family.
We had a lovely Christmas.
A simple Christmas.
We were all very lucky to find lovely gifts under the tree,
but then,
we are all pretty lucky, presents or not.
So many unforgettable moments from our 2013 Christmas;
the wonder on the children's faces,
the pride at my husband's first Christmas dinner,
the beautiful boy saying "wow, what did you do?" when he saw the presents,
the beautiful girl soaking up the excitement and dancing throughout the day;
the magic of it all.
Simple Christmas times are the best and yours looked like it was lovely. I am glad they are enjoying their kitchen, it was by far the best pressie we ever got Mads! Mads watched this video with me and said two things 'I want to go to BB's house' and 'We have the ladybird book.' There we are then. ;) x
ReplyDeleteThanks lovely. And Mads is welcome to come and play at BBs house any time she likes. x
DeleteGorgeous video! Love Beautiful Girl dancing away!
ReplyDeleteThank-you. Her dancing was a big highlight. x
DeleteLove this video! Always like your music choices too! What book are you reading, the pop up one? Looks fantastic! We love sharing a shell and what the ladybird heard in this house! Hope you all enjoy them. Although my little man gets very upset in sharing a shell when the sea stars are unhappy with the situation and we have to feverishly read until they are happy again on the very back page! Love it! X
ReplyDeleteAhhh, thank-you. Picking the right music is often the hardest part.
DeleteThe book we're reading is The Night Before Christmas by Robert Sabuda. It's the most gorgeous book ever, a special one for Christmas Eve bedtime each year. x
Adore the little dance BG does with her dolly. Such a beautiful video. Your little ones will love having it to look back on.
ReplyDeleteShe is cute with that doll, she loves her! So looking forward to looking back at this next year. x
DeleteThis is just beautiful Lucy - a perfect way to capture your special day together. Adore BG dancing with her new doll - so so cute! xxx
ReplyDeleteThanks. I always video snippets of Christmas anyway, but made a proper effort to video some of the details this year and I'm so glad I did. x
DeleteI adore your videos, such a wonderful idea for lovely memories. I love the little dance BG does with her new dolly. Gorgeous xx
ReplyDeleteThanks, I've totally fallen in love with video. It seems to capture something you can never quite get in a photograph. x
DeleteThis is so beautiful. I love the way BB and BG play so nicely together and BG's dancing is the cutest! I love watching your videos, they make such a difference to photos and will be amazing for you all to look back on in years to come x
ReplyDeleteThank-you. I'm so lucky that they get along so well together. Our little lady loves a dance, she does it a lot, but especially when cuddling her dolls, she looks like a mini mama.
DeleteI'm so glad I'm recording more video now, it's already great watching some back from earlier last year. x
lovely video and Bg's dancing is the cutest! Looks ike a fab Christmas
ReplyDeleteThanks, we did have the loveliest Christmas with our lovely twosome. We all adored her dancing all day long. x
DeleteI loved it! You know how much I love your videos. You are uber talented, lady! I *might* have had a little cry at how sweet and happy your kids are...
ReplyDeleteAhhh, you big softy. So glad you liked it. I was grinning the whole time I was editing because the kiddos are so damn sweet together. x
DeleteJusy beautiful. Isn't Mr R a good boy doing dinner.
ReplyDeleteLove BG dancing. Heart warming and how great BB is as an older brother.
Thanks lovely, Mr R is the chef around these parts and he was so excited cook the dinner. He did a fab job! x
DeleteOh that's such a lovely video, and such a magical day. I love the Beautiful Girls's dancing, she's just so sweet with her dolly, and they both look like they adore their play kitchen!
ReplyDeleteThanks, it really was a magical day. She mothered that dolly all day (still is actually) and the play kitchen is being just as well used as we hoped it would. x
DeleteA beautiful video, makes me think I should do more xx
ReplyDeleteThanks hun, it's such a great way of really capturing kids how they actually are I think. It gets them better than just a photo. x
DeleteOh she has still got her wiggle! too cute. Love how obvious your beautiful boy cares for his little sister. what a wonderful Christmas.
ReplyDeleteShe wiggles constantly, she's such a little groover. And she really does have the most gentle and lovely big brother, he's so good with her. x
