We used to use a Betamax Video camera, and while ds was growing up we took hours and hours of videos of him... of course now we have only the cassettes and no machine to play them on... we also gave a copy of all the videoing to MIL/FIL . Way back then, their machine is also obsolete.
The other day FIL came downstairs with 3 bags for us. He said,, I do not know what to do with all these old videos of my grandson. Well for a non media minded person of 86, I looked in the bag and just about cried. He had taken them to a shop and asked them what to do with them all and he made DVD's from them.... amazing. I have not watched these or been able to in years and it was really sad. So that's where I was on Saturday,,, watching and crying at all the vidoes now DVDs of my toddler ds... wonderful.... there are about 190 DVD's to go thru,,, so when you don't see me here , you will know exactly where I am and what I'm doing... I'm in heaven.
I've gotta go now, (to a brunch)......

What a sweetie! I'm glad they were converted to DVDs. We have small tapes here that hubby needs to convert to DVDs so we don't lose them to changing technology.
We need to do that as well.
So glad you enjoyed & cried .. fun way to spend the day ..
