Well we got the Canon and Hunter and his friend 5 year old Alexandra produce and directed a short film for the 48 hour film project it was a great time the kids had a blast telling us what to do and made a darn good film I think! they may not have won an award but they recieved a lot of kudos and were very proud of thier hard work.

We are getting so excited about you guys coming can't wait for 1 Second in the park (still waiting on offical time to give to the city so they can put it on the city notice board and on the city info TV channel. Also I know our Veterans are going to be so appreciative of the concert on Friday Morning! Great way to say thank you to those that served.

Got the hot water boiling to wash clothes and give hot showers! See you all soon!!!

Hey Hollie, I've never used either of these; I'd suggest going to a store where they have the cameras and trying them out. Are the kids going to be filming?
