Post of Christmas Past

We are officially starting a new holiday tradition! If you have family members spread out across the state, the country or even the world you may not all be able to get together for the holidays.

Sharing a holiday Zoom call seems like an obvious choice but we’re about to give it a supercharge.

With a little pre-planning, a dash of creativity and a some joyful effort you can edit videos and photos of all of your previous family holidays.

With the use of screen sharing the whole family can watch the heartwarming video together from wherever they are in the world.

Add in some eggnog, hot cocoa, spiced cider and some ugly Christmas sweaters and you have a family tradition for the ages.
