Jayne, this video was great. It was not only a great reminder of the joys of Halloween and family, but what a great family keepsake.

Doing video editing myself, heaven knows how many hours Jed put into this.

Fantastic.

(The Superman parts were some of my favorites...how did you EVER get him in your movie?)

Anita Wells said...

perfect ending as hazel blew out the candle. thanks!

Unknown said...

thanks for making me feel like a terrible mother!! Can my kids join your family? So fun!

Ginna said...

Wow that was a beautiful video, and the kids are so adorable!!

sarah sample said...

I loved it. but I knew it was really amazing when june insisted on watching the video 3 times. and now is still signing 'more.'
typical.

megan said...

First of all, your family is beautiful. Secondly, so is Jed's video--a perfect Halloween.

And lastly, Mack the Knife is maybe my very favorite song, ever. Nice choice, and I love Lovebell's sneaking, and Parley jabbing a knife into a pumpkin. And Julian's hands getting warmed, and Hazel--so perfect.

Could you and your little family be the definition of perfection? I believe the answer is yes. You guys are adorable! So glad I found your cute little blog!

Shana said...

Wonderful. I just knew she'd blow out the candle at the end.

Sarah Burgoyne said...

I love it! I have to figure out how to do that... I should probably figure out how to use my video camera first... :)

jayne wells said...

Uh-oh.

Just so we're clear, these were the pretty moments of Halloween, and Jed IS trained in photography.

We also had kids who were too tired the next day from staying up late, and crying cause I wouldn't give them another Oreo. SO, your Halloween was just as awesome, you just need someone to pick your best moments and take out the rest.

But I'm not giving Jed up, so it'll have to be someone else.

Jay and Gwen Sessions said...

bravo! bravo!

happy halloween.

ali said...

oops. that was not a comment from jay and gwen. but I am sure they would have loved it too.

jed said...

aw, nuts. i've been waiting for some kind words from jay and gwen for years.

Mrs. Cropper said...

um...DARLING!

we have had many a happy halloween on elm ave!

Jen said...

Your trees are incredible! i miss Utah autumn. What a cool movie and great memories.

elizabeth said...

Such sweet kids, but ummmmmm, was Parley picking his nose and eating it while watching TV? lol

jed said...

um, yeah. he feasted through the whole movie. i tried to cut the most graphic parts.

sorry, some of it got through.

Brimley Girl said...

What a fun video. They looked darling in their costumes and it was such a nice night for trick or treating. I love the music too.

Unknown said...

Jayne - wierd that while I was watching this, I got an email that you had commented on my blog! Creepy...

Also, tell Jed to put that damn camera down and help you rake the leaves. Rude.

Also, your family is beautiful. Congrats.

allison nadauld said...

Bravo! The only thing cuter than that video would have been being able to enjoy it in person. I love it all. Jed is sure talented!

Tamsin said...

I just came back to tell you that, thanks to your video, I spent all day singing Mack the Knife and doing the ol' soft shoe.

Just SO said...

I absolutely loved this! What a fun video.

Five-year-old Anna summed it up for me after watching this three times. "It's too great!" Yes indeedy. Also, two-year-old Lucy saw the picture of Amy Poehler (can't spell that name!) and said, "A princess! It's my favorite princess!" So, I don't know what kind of rose-colored glasses she's wearing, but we are all rabid fans of your families' movies. Thanks for sharing them.
