Homage to Kid History
Posted on January 11th, 2014 by JeanA few weeks ago, I confessed my Kid History Obsession, and promised to try to emulate these family-friendly videos. Here is our attempt at telling a true story from my youth. Please enjoy!
Thanks to my husband and kids for playing along, and BIG thanks to my brother for covering for me so I wouldn’t have MY nail pulled off!

BRAVA, Jean!
That was AWESOME! In fact, I watched it TWICE!
And I am so impressed with your editing skills. LOVE the voice of your husband! And I love the part where the skate ran over his finger!!!
Kudos to you, your husband and kids!
Academy Award winning!

Thank you, Ron!
I love the crushed finger part so much, I wet myself. LOL!
I wish hubby had more speaking parts.
Thank you so much! Looking forward to making more of these.

Thanks, Jaffer! That bone crushing sound is from crumpled newspaper. I was really proud of my family for playing along. Next time, hubby’s childhood story. 🙂

Wow! Great job! And what an awesome brother you had! My video would probably be about the time I hid my brother’s baseball mitt and he thought it was lost or stolen. I was kind of mean.

Thank you, Krysten!
I found your comment in the spam folder. I hate it when that happens!
Hoping all is well with you & your weddings plans! Love that the ceremony is being moved up, and that it will be more intimate.
