Laying on the couch sick has given me plenty of time to watch old family videos.  Here are a few of my observations and questions:

Dad's favorite on-camera phrase is "turn that thing off'!"

Mom was very diligent in recording our annual irreverent reenactment of the nativity.  And Doug was always the donkey.

Speaking of Doug, I really hope he had multiple breggy oil tshirts.  He wore it on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day for multiple years, and every other recording in between.

Mom, when you let Courtney 'clean out the dishwasher' as a baby and throw dishes all over the floor, did you then re-wash them?  Or did you consider them clean still??

Amie opened a headband for her birthday.  Jenna said 'its what you've always wanted.'  Amie made clear it was NOT what she'd always wanted.  'Why would you think I wanted this? I never said that. I didn't want it.' Than she fake smiles and says 'thanks!'

Courtney was moms favorite child to video tape. Unless amie was mad, then I think she was moms favorite to video tape.

Why did I have a bowl cut in 1991? Whose idea was that??

Amie has always thought she had a 'hot body', as evidenced by the hot pink spandex shorts she wore around the house.

90's neon was not good to any of us.
