Making Minecraft Videos with the Perfect Movie Studio

#Intel2in1

For years, Ryan’s been a big fan of making his own videos. It started with some real simple goofiness recorded on our cell phones. That slowly expanded over time, however, and he’s now the mad genius behind the YouTube Channel VideoWaxy87. Yeah, my 10-year-old son can now record and edit videos way better than I ever could. Heck, he’s got more than 175 videos on his channel right now and has no signs of slowing …

From Weight Lifting to Yoga, I Am Tuna Strong

#TunaStrong

The weather cooperated fairly well, though …

It’s a Pac-Man mug, but it changes pictures …

Building Fabulous Memories with Photo Books

Know what I miss? Sitting around with friends and family on the couch, flipping through a photo album. Y’know, the kind where you carefully place two or three photos on a page and then slide the plastic covering over it to keep them all in place. Except, over time, the pages yellow. The photos slide around. Pages rip out. Actually, scratch that, I don’t miss the photo albums, I miss the memories of looking at …
