Oh my stars. Kris Murray. Does this name ring a bell? She was one of our unforgettable video contest winners last year and if she ever decides to NOT enter, I’ll head to Alberta, Canada and go knocking on her door. If you missed last year’s video, catch it here. Pure awesomeness in documenting the everyday.
Kris seriously needs to be my next door neighbor. I don’t know her personally, but I love her. I love how she documents. I love how you can tell she loves her role as a wife and mother without trying to paint it as some rosy journey. In her own words:
As soon as I heard this song by Go Fish Guys, I could just imagine my life as a music video to the song and wanted to get started on it so bad! But, I am a procrastinator and only seem to be motivated by urgency. So, I kept putting it off and onto the back burner ONLY until I read about the 12 Videos of Christmas contest. BOOM! Urgency! Instantly motivated. And I got ‘er done! I love a good contest, but I also need a kick in the pants when it comes to making sure I take time to document my BLESSED, beautiful life!

ABSO-FREAKIN’-LUTELY one of my favorite videos!!!
This video was just great. I am trying to take delight in every little thing about my days. Her highlights of her day – just the common, everyday happenings – it was just great to see and I hope that as I read more about Project life that I will get “into it” like so many and start documenting the “little things.” Thank you for an inspiring website that pushes me to be more – and document it.
