Decorating Our Tree

I’ve been wanting to do a time-lapse video of something around here.  Decorating our Christmas Tree seemed like a perfect fit for such a project.  I put the camera and laptop on the piano and using EOS Utility I shot tethered every 10 seconds.  I used ImageMagick to crop and resize the images to 1920×1080 and then finally to sequence them as an MPG.

Back to the Pumpkin Patch

We had a spare moment in between birthday parties, so we headed South, to the Grand Ole Pumpkin Patch.

Wow, we had fun.  The weather was perfect, we got a hayride to and from the pumpkin patch, we got the two best pumpkins there and the girls probably spent an hour jumping on the inflatables.

Sam went on a three story tall slide and came down so fast she landed on the ground kinda hard.  I think that was a sufficient enough negative outcome to make her terrified of trying it again.  She much preferred the obstacle course.  Have a look at the pictures, you be the judge.
