Better late than never

I have been spending all of my free computer moments editing the wedding video and I have neglected my blog.

On the weekend we bought a second game for our Wii - Play. It has some fun games on it. We had the usual suspects over to play. Always a good time!

We also went out to Canmore. Gotta love living close to the mountains.

My poor baby.

Logan has experienced some interesting things in his training. They have done some crazy physical training, learned things that the average person doesn't want to know. A week or two ago they Tazered him. He was one of seven who experienced that pleasure. He even videotaped it. Not something I can watch. Not true, I watched the other people and laughed - but saw Logan get it and felt terrible for him. To hear him groan in pain is not easy. But his comment on that event was that the pain was more than he thought it could be while the Tazer was cycling (3 sec), but as soon as it was done it was over! There was no lasting pain or anything. Today is another story.

Today all of them were peppered sprayed. My poor baby. They pulled numbers and he was last. He got to watch every one of them go thru it before it was his turn. He said that it was more painful than he ever thought that it could be. Apparently his eyes, nose and mouth started to run like crazy to clear out the pepper spray. Gross.

I feel really bad because the pain continued, well, continues. They were sprayed at 1:00 and felt alot of pain until 6:00. He sat in the car for half an hour with the air in his face until he could drive. He came home and looked horrible. After the exercise they had a decontamination area with a bucket of water and baby shampoo to rinse. But they were told only to wash once cause the spray is worst when it is wet. Then they all lined up in front of the fans they had to cool down the burning. He came home and stood on a phone book on a chair to put his face up to the air conditioner vent. He started to feel better and went to do the dishes. He obviously got sprayed on the hands cause the water reactivated the spray and then next thing I know he has his hands in the freezer.

I guess if the point is to show them how their weapons feel they may think about it before they use them. I think that Logan will reserve the use of Pepper spray for those who have really done bad.

We gotta Wii

I am excited to announce that we got a Nintendo Wii! I love it. We have it hooked up so it displays on our projector. I love that thing! I can't wait to try some of the other interesting games they have created for it. Yeah Nintendo!

Ceremony complete!

Of the four weddings I have edited thus far I have always started with the Ceremony. This is mostly because it is the most important part of the whole day and I want to give it that extra energy that comes with starting a project. I am happy to report that it is complete. The sound quality is not great but I tried to even it out. And there are some shaky moments. But it is all there. And I happen to like it - if I do say so myself.

What next? Hard to say. We will see what tickles my fancy when I open up the program.

Day on the Bow

Today was great. 30 degrees and sunny. We spent the day on a raft on the Bow River. And the best part is that I didn't even get sun burned. A little pink, yes. But that is the best possible outcome.
