Just as Santa has his elves, I have my team. I could absolutely, positively NOT do all of this without them. We are few in numbers – but man, they are the BEST. As in – for real. The best. So Brandi is my Project Manager (and my dear friend). Organizing and sorting through all the submissions we get on a regular basis is a project. Specifically, the 12 Videos of Christmas contest is indeed a project. And of course she has done such an amazing job helping to narrow down the selection (I personally hand-picked the final winners), contacting everyone, and everything else involved in the project.

So imagine my delight when Brandi slipped her OWN video into the submissions. Like I said when I announced the contest, ANYone was eligible to submit and she took that seriously … and made a video that’s completely not serious at all. Pure fun. Pure adorableness. With her very best friend (and other dear friend of mine) Allison. They got together in New Mexico over Thanksgiving and did what they love to do the most when they’re together: Laugh, dance, and make videos.

Equipment: JVC camcorder & Canon Rebel dslr  (created with Windows Live Movie Maker).
