Kids say the darndest things

Every year the Ostler side of the family puts together a Nativity video to watch together on Christmas Eve. In years past we have had the kids dress up and act out the Story of Christ’s birth while grandpa Ostler narrates. This year we decided to do something a little different; use the kids as the Narrators and the adults as the actors. Kind of like the kid history videos you can find on youtube.

So first step was to interview all of the grandkids, ages 2-11, to see how much of the nativity story they knew. My brother in law, David is heading up this project and will be the mastermind behind cropping and snipping all of the kids interviews together to make one awesome story told by the grandkids. Dan and I interviewed all of our kids tonight so we could turn our videos into David to get started. They all did really good retelling the story and most of them said something funny that will be so cute to use in the video. But the award for “biggest ham” and “kids saying the darndest things” goes to our 3yr old, Hudson. Here are a few of my favorite lines that I hope will make it into the final edit. (I left Dan and I talking on the video just so you would know what questions he was responding to, but in the final video it will be just the kids talking.)

Can’t wait to see the final product on Christmas Eve. It should be AWESOME! Thanks for all your hard work David.
