Old Technology

Today my daughter woke up from her nap and wanted to watch Jasmine. Of course I only have that movie on VHS. We really need to invest is getting the classic Disney movies, especially the princess ones, on DVD. Well…we get about 30 minutes into the movie and my daughter says, “It turns off.” Of course the VCR is trying to eat my tape. Right now my husband is taking the VCR apart and cleaning it to try and make it work again.

All Abby wanted to do was sit and watch a movie. She was being so good and peaceful. Hopefully we can get that moment back.

“It just turns on Mommy!” Though the pleasure was short lived. It turned back off. Daddy is now on his way over to Walmart to find a new VCR. Good luck Daddy!

    Did you find a vcr? We looked for one when ours started eating Anna’s tapes. It was cheaper and easier to buy DVDs. =)

      Yeah, we got an el-cheapo VCR/DVD combo player. I don’t like it too much (it’s cheap,) but it works!

      We’re looking to get some more of the favorites on DVD in the next year or so. I guess we should make a list, huh?
