we're better together (a must see!)

Our family video (which is a must see, in case you were wondering!):

 

You guys, I am so in love with this video!! The only person who loves it more than me is Mia... she is obsessed with watching it, ha ha. It's the sweetest experience watching her watch it, she will smile and excitedly point out the "birdie" (ducks) or the "doggie"! And during random moments of watching her play with Eric, or having a dance party with us, she will smirk and laugh. My heart could burst while watching her recognize the love and happiness she feels when seeing our little family!
Can I just mention real quick what an amazing experience it was filming with Kavin Lindgren? He is amazing (and Mia totally had a crush, she wanted to hold his hand and walk everywhere with him)! He was so cool to work with and so patient with us! But the best part? Not one of us needed much patience... filming this video was SO stinking easy compared to trying to get Mia to pose for pictures! I mean, my picture-hating (anything to do with having to smile-hating) husband doesn't have anything to complain about, so you know that's sayin' something :) ha ha! Kavin is incredibly talented and while he's based in southern California, he travels all over to film, which is awesome since we are in Utah! I just can't say enough good things about him... and I hope he doesn't get sick of us since I obviously need a new video each time we add a kid to the mix!

So tell me, what do you think of our video?!

This is amazing!!! I would have never thought of a professional video. What a great idea and wonderful keepsake!

Antoinette Musik said...

This video is beyond amazing!!!! I think I have watched it like ten times (just a tiny bit obsessed) You and Eric are the cutest couple ever and Mia is absolutely gorgeous!!! I even showed my hubby Rob and the first thing he said was ''that's a really cute little girl, looks like she loves her life!''
I have to say that Mia's character in this video reminds me so much of Emilias. I think they would get on so well.
I really wanna get a professional family video like your one now!

Finally got a chance to watch this -- so adorable! The song choice even caught my hubby's attention, and he watched some of the video with me, and immediately said, "I could make something like this for us." :-D Here's hoping!

OMG, So many things to say about this video! 1. You look so pretty! 2. It WAS the cutest thing ever! Especially Mia's little walk/run! 3. Better Together is me and my husbands song! It is my ring tone for him! 4. This video totally made me cry like a dumb baby because it made me think of how fast Hallie is growing up! lol So cute!
