Taking Christmas Pictures and Videos and Etc.

My family celebrated Christmas on Christmas Eve this year because my dad had to work both days we had it at night. My nieces who are 3 and 11 of course wanted to start opening presents the minute they came in the door but that's kids for you My mom is worse than a two year old about wanting to peek in the bags and etc. I love to take pictures of my nieces and family but I don't really like my picture taken :) My youngest niece was very excited and of course she couldn't believe she had so many presents.I walk with a cane so when she saw her baton in her socking stuffer bag she asked" Is this my cane?" I got it on video and we all thought it was cute .I couldn't afford much this year because I'm not able to work so my mom gave me some money to buy a few gifts and I made a couple of things . I printed a packet of pictures for my sister-in-law to share with her family .I use a Kodak 6.2 megapixel with a 10 x zoom it takes nice pictures I used my tripod alot this time because I couldn't stand up alot .If you have a camera with 6 or higher megapixel I recommend getting a ac adapter to plug it to electricity because even with rechargable batteries the power of the batteries doesn't last long exspecially if you take video clips and take pictures too. We had a good time but when they left I was hurting so bad I was about to cry. I truly believe if it weren't for my family,computer,camera I would be crazy already because I miss the life I had before I got hurt and my friends I use to have. I remember my grandmother gave me for Christmas my first camera as a child and I have loved taking pictures since then. I began paper scrapbooking and have got into more of computer scrapbooking because it's easier to do and guess what I got for Christmas Scrapbooking stuff stickers,books and etc. I will still use them sometime of course it just will be a lot slower than I use to be able to do it. I miss being able to make the majority of my gifts because that's what I always enjoyed making stuff for family and friends .
