Music Ideas

I am making a video of many of my kid's photos from the last few years for our parents Christmas gift. (Hopefully they don't check my blog, if you do, SURPRISE.) However, I need help choosing songs. If you were making a Christmas video of your kids, what songs would you use? Thanks for any help.

P.S. Thanks for all the input on Mason's hair. Looks like the majority thinks it should stay, and the majority wins so Mason will be keeping his locks for a little longer. (He likes his hair so it's probably good to keep it longer.)

I never did comment on Mason's hair, because I was still thinking about it. Glad you made a decision. Did you get my message yesterday?

Cute Christmas gift idea! Have fun with it!

Hey There! I am glad you are leaving Mason's hair long...It's so cute! Although I think he would be just as cute with shorter hair! When my sister was little she had Shirley Temple curls, when they cut it it grew back in stick straight! So cutting it is a risky thing...

I was trying to think of some songs that might work for your video, but I have serious baby brain and lose my train of thought mid sentence, so I can't think of any songs off the top of my head, I'll let you know if I think of any and actually remember them. :)

hmmm...great question. There are so many possibilities :) Maybe instrumental christmas tunes (mellow). I don't know...just a suggestion. If you go to pandora.com you can type in one song you like and they will make a "radio station" that you play at your computer with songs that you will probably like similar to the one you type in. I typed in manheim steamroller holiday and the music it has been playing is BEAUTIFUL! Try it...anyway...good luck!

I think that Ordinary Miracle by Sarah McLoughlan we talked about is a good one. Also, I have this great one that is on the Princess Diary 2 Soundtrack . . . Its a good arrangement of Love me Tender. I have it on the video Damon made of my babies.

this is the exact reason I don't make slide shows to music. picking the music stresses me out!! what about somewhere over the rainbow by IZ. I love that song.

I say if you like mason's hair, enjoy it for awhile longer because as others have said, it will never be the same again if you cut it! those curls are precious!

P.S. YOU"RE IT!! check out my blog for details. just do it. it's actually fun once you start.

Tara-
I realize you posted this a while ago, so you might be done with the slideshow by now- but I was going to suggest "Beautiful Life" by Fisher. Good luck!!

All these good looking kids, did Don have hair like that when he was young? Hope you are all doing well! About time for a visit to Hawaii? Don't you think?

I keep checking your blog to see if there is gonna be a new post . . . and I am going to keep checking, everyday . . . in hopes! (Not that I don't talk to you all the time or anything, but I just don't have enough to do, obviously!)
