REEL2REALTORS is a new Active Rain Group by Janice that's a lot of fun. You can park your home movies there and any other original video you create in this group. It's all about you sharing what ever you want in the visual with the rest of your blogging buddies. I think Little Minion TV is going to have a lot of fun playing over there, among other places.

My kids had a blast playing at an Open House in Cambria Heights.

Next stop for the Little Minions is the QSAC Open House in Douglaston on Thursday, April 23rd. I have some very talented friends who work there and it's a great institution to donate to if you are looking for a worth while charitable tax write off.

Stephen the Minion Blur suffers from PDD-NOS and Noah is Autistic. I will be attending their Open House and chatting with other parents at QSAC about the realities of having learning disabled kids. The Minion Blur will be on hand so this should be interesting. He is turning three soon and we need to have him re-evaluated. I can't think of a better place to entrust my little pookie to. They are stellar advocates of the learning disabled and my family adores the work they did with Noah when he was diagnosed. Check out the flier below for more information regarding QSAC's next Open House. Please consider donating to the Autism non-profits of your choice because we need all the help we can get.

Will keep you guys posted regarding upcoming Autism events and the little minions and I shall take you on a virtual community walk through Douglaston over the weekend so you don't get lost coming to the Open House April 23rd (LOL). QSAC hooked me up with a PDF flier to share with you. It's right under the minion movie saved as a jpeg. Feel free to redistribute the flier to your friends and family  who may need their services. Don't forget to send them a donation. A dollar can make a difference so please think about giving anything you can spare.

Your support of QSAC will help support families like mine who need their help educating our special needs kids and showing parents like me how to help grow our quirky little people into productive, self directed little citizens.

Feel free to contact QSAC to find out what you can do to help make a difference in the life of kids like Stephen and Noah. Thank you. :-)

Looks like they had fun and bonus the house survived the invasion of the minions too!  Just kidding they are so full of energy it makes me tired just watching.  Great video Sis.  See you soon.

Janice, I used a Nikon Coolpix 7600 (.mov Quicktime files), a Sony Handycam Hybrid (.avi Mini DV files), Sound Forge and Sony Acid Pro 7 for the audio and music files, Pinnacle Studio Ultimate 12 (to process the .avi digital video files) and Vegas Movie Studio 9 Platinum Pro Pack to process the .mov and .avi files together into a five minute clip. You can make professional HD video productions with this software. So far I've just been fooling around learning how to use it. I'm improving a little at a time and really enjoy playing with my toys. I'm very serious about getting all the features down pat. When I finally learn everything this stuff can do I think it's going to be a scream (LOL). 

I'm learning how to animate stuff right now. That should prove to be very interesting down the road (LOL).

Richard, they make life interesting between the down time periods. They love open houses. They get the run of the place and they get comfortable pretty quickly. Sometimes they play very nicely with their toys, other times its all about the dirt, rocks and twigs (LOL). Heaven forbid if they discover a bug (LMAO).

Susie, it's a lot easier than you think. I work in 20 minute intervals so I can get a lot done by doing a little at a time. :-)

I just adore your children.  Ours are 21, 20 and 18 and none living at home with us anymore.  I miss my beautiful babies... I think I'll have to watch some home videos tonight.
