Ryan has become obsessed with the iPad app called iMovie. He uses it to make movie trailers and 15-minute videos of himself playing Minecraft as he explains what’s happening. Yeah, in his own words, Ryan’s become a “YouTuber.” Jason loves joining in at times too, and when the kids’ cousins are over for a visit, forget about it.
