If this isn't an apple commercial... I don't know what is.

I'm a Mac.
I love being a Mac.

But there is so much to learn and so much to do.

Today I made my first movie.
I am hopelessly in love.

Just us at the beach.
Soaking in one of the last days with just our littlest one before the big girls get out of school for the summer.
An iPhone.  8mm app.  iMovie. In less than ten minutes.

Happiness.

Thank you Steve Jobs.
And Shauna.  Because this movie making business is honestly all your fault.

    That is so precious. And I'm jealous because my 2 year old has a MAJOR sand aversion...even though she's been exposed plenty of times. I was hoping she'd be over it for this summer but it's still going strong :(
