Pardon me while I de-lurk just to say that video is very cool. I really enjoy your blog.
oh my goodness! I love it! Your whole family is so fun and creative. You all look adorable. That is so great! I have a huge smile. I really started laughing when your little miss started singing in "her" deep voice :) loved the the little lip pulls too. Your outfit was perfect!
Okay - the whole thing was perfect!

That was so much fun! Loved it! Your and your family are SO cute! I wish my husband knew how to make videos!
Seriously. Too. Cute.
What an amazing Christmas Card!! Such talent!! I have been following your blog since the Balloons for Nie post in Aug (which was such a great video!!) You are such an inspiration! I love your honestly and candor about motherhood..thanks for sharing..Heather in CA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! THAT WAS FANTASTIC!!! I WILL WATCH IT 50 MORE TIMES TODAY!!!! YOU GUYS LOOK SOOO GREAT!
So darling! I wish my hubby would be willing to do something like that.
Love it--what wonderful memories you're creating for your children!! Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!
Way too clever. Excuse me while I go stuff another boring letter into another white envelope. I'll be humming White Christmas while I do it.
wow.... if only I was this creative and my boyfriend this willing. amazing!
cutest thing that I have ever seen!!!
adorable.
Just popped over from CJane and had to add my compliments to this brilliant little bit of Christmas spirit! Made this long afternoon in a cubicle a bit brighter!
Just found your blog from cjane, I am fascinated. And you live in the valley, too? This blogging thing is amazing. I love getting glimpses into other peoples lives. LOve the video, by the way.
from cjane as well...
this is darling. your family is darling. and i'm especially dying over the booty shot. so funny!
You should take it one the road!!! Brilliant.
Like some of the others, I came across this from CJane's blog. That video is awesome. It actually brought tears to my eyes. That will be something that you and your family can treasure forever.
Happy Holidays!!!
Olivia
Very very very clever and cool!
I hopped over from cjane's not knowing what to expect, but oh my what brilliance!!! I absolutely loved every second.
Merry Christmas!!!

What a gorgeous talented family you have. This was brilliant... Actually brought tears to my eyes.
Found through CJane...this is absolutely fantastic! What an incredible family! "Well done!
precious, i love it!
wow that was so adorable!!!!
darling, just darling! (I know where you got those stillettos!....I have the SAME PAIR) ;)
beautiful job, made me smile and have tears in my eyes all at the same time because it reminds me of my grandmother's era. a byegone generation that should not be forgotten.
merry christmas. and i hope you don't mind if i share this site with some others who i think will enjoy it.
This is fantastic! I also wish we were so cool. Love the little dance moves in the middle! And the baby singing. So great.
Wow! Love it!
Came from cjane and my first thought, I can't wait to convince my family to do this. Or die trying. Excellent! Your little ones will treasure this in 20 yrs like I treasure my videos from a long time ago. love it!
Oh my goodness. This is hilarious. Love the booty shot. Love the snow angel. Love....every pure second of it. It leaves me with this strange emotion of wanting to cry and laugh at the same time. I need a video like this, starring my own family!
WOW!! So wow! I of course want to try and won't. But still...
Oh, Melancholy, I heart you and your brilliant husband and your ADORABLE children. SO creative and fun. Thanks for getting me in the holiday spirit! I have been humming this since I saw it on Monday!
I spent most of last night trying to think of ways that I could become as cool and classy as your family. Yet, here I sit unshowered and in sweatpants. So, I apparently failed. I LOOOOVE IT! and your blog!
I have no idea who you are yet I think you are the coolest people around. (I'm a cousin of Emily Foley - does that help?)
Followed the link from CJ and wow! This is just so cool! Merry Christmas to all of you too!
Followed the link from CJane and seriously, this is so darn fun and cute!!!!!!! What an awesome thing to do as a family. Can I link it on my blog????
Wow, behold the power of CJane! I woke up this morning to an inbox full of comments...I'd love to answer all of you individually, but that won't likely happen. I'll leave it at this: Thanks for the praise! Yes, go try this with your families, it's so fun! Yes, link this on your blogs! And no, I'm not always dressed like that. Here I am in gym clothes, making myself go out for a run and wanting to eat shortbread cookies for breakfast... :) Merry Christmas, all!
I followed the link from CJane as well... and this is jUUUs fun! :) Hope you don't mind all of us new friends checking it out! So great!
omg. so perfect. :o)
beautiful! love it!
AWWWHHH! You guys are so freakin frackin cool! I really really loved your song. Peace!
I am another cjane follower that found my way here. I have a fledling blog that now features your video as my simple gift for 12-7-08.
