digital video recorderLike most people my husband and I use our digital video recorder to get footage of significant events.  This would include things like birthdays, New Year, family vacations, school concerts, graduations and recitals as well as special occasions such as weddings. However some of the footage we record with our digital camera seems very plain and simple at first glance. It’s often the kind of thing that occurs daily until it simply doesn’t happen anymore and you find yourself missing it. For example yesterday I got our digital video recorder out because my step-grandkids were laughing and having fun with my two dogs on the trampoline we have in our back yard. This is something that both the dogs and the kids enjoy. The thing is that dogs only have short lives and children do not stay young forever. Therefore in years to come the dogs and kids won’t play on the trampoline outside. At least it won’t be the same kids or the same dogs. To see them play on the trampoline I will have to watch the footage I recorder with our digital video recorder. Recording simple but precious memories is what I think owning a digital video recorder is all about.
