Sneak Peak of the Weekend

Alright, I have taken a few of my favorite pictures to share with y'all as a 'sneak peak/preview'. :-) I will probably have to do several posts of all the pictures... We took (well, mostly Becca took them) over 1,000 pictures. =D But, I guess that's how it goes sometimes! ;-) And in the digital age, you can snap pictures quicker than you can say 'cheese'. :-)

So, enjoy the pictures and let me know what you think!! :-)

My wonderful parents!

Trying to be serious....

...and utterly failing. ;-) 

Do I look at home in this thing or what? It would be so neat to own one!!! 

My 'amazing' photo... ;-) Actually, I thought it turned out pretty neat!

Lizzy from 'Cars'. 

Cuzin's Visitin' on the porch swing-the weather was SO nice.

Lining up my aim for an amazingly easy shot which... I missed.

Yours truly (picture taken by my amazing sis!)

And one of the whole family! (photo credit to my Aunt Betty)

So, there's your sneak peak! I hope you enjoyed it and want to see more.... 'cuz there's a whole bunch of 'em. ;-) In the next post I'll probably give you the 'tour' of the house (basically I walked through the house and took pictures every couple of steps...) The Attic (otherwise known as the "Princess Room") where we girls slept was especially neat! :-)

Help please?

Ok, I'm trying to get a picture video to load, but it won't work.  How do you bloggers do it?? ;-)  I put together some pictures into a video using Windows Movie Maker and Vegas Platinum 7.0 (two different videos to see which program worked), but alas, it didn't work.  I was able to get it to 'upload', but then it said some error happened during the upload and it wouldn't play back.  I don't know if it is because our Internet wasn't working or what. So, does any one else have this problem?

I'd dearly love to put together some  pictures videos for you (for one, they upload faster than hundreds of pictures, and I can put music to them!).

So, if you have some help for me, I appreciate it VERY much!!! :-)

As for an update, our family is now home and "enjoying" this freezing cold weather! haha!  The wind is blowing something awful and the snow is swirling around and around.  It's actually funny to look outside right now because we have two foot drifts there, and then hardly anything on the ground here.  It's all splotched everywhere like that!  The wind just swirls the snow into drifts instead of a nice even coat (which I MUCH prefer!).  It's frustrating because this wind is 'drying out' the snow, per se. I know that sounds odd, but it wicks the moisture out and back into the air instead of letting the ground soak it up to store away for spring.  Argh.  Hopefully we will get some wet snow so that our cows will have something to eat in the spring/summer.....  How is the weather at your place?

Thanks for your help on the computer predicament.... ;-)

Keeping warm, (well, trying to any how, but not succeeding very well... my fingers are frozen anyhow and it's a miracle I can keep typing!)

Help please....

Ok, I need some help from you more experienced bloggers. How do I embed a youtube video into my post?? I wanted to share an really neat song, but don't want to just give a link.. I tried copying the 'embed code' and then pasting into a post like this, but all it did was show up the words.  So, can any one help me by giving me a tutorial or something?

Thanks!
