DVD #6 - Fall/ Winter 1989

DVD #6 is basically just shots from around the house in late November, early December 1989.

Disk begins with a snippet of Dad apparently being questioned as an expert witness in an insurance case. Then we jump to November 26, 1989, according to the date stamp on the screen, and the kids except Andrew (who was away at school) are in the living room, playing with Dad. Pass the mystery object. Cookie jar, etc.

Then we jump to a little tea party in Emily's room. Em is accompanied by two little girls from the Brown family. November 30, 1989.

Next, Dave, Scott and Jeff F. are playing video games in the large upstairs back room. Then skip to the downstairs living room, where Seiji (?) is visiting to play with Dan. Must not be Seiji. Little Jeff B. is also there.

Next, David, Mattias PdL treat everyone to juggling and a mime act. The younger kids "help". Nice shots of Dan and Em playing together jumping off of a chair into pillows. December 1, 1989.

Another snippet of Dad giving work-related testimony.

Em showing off a Christmas dress.

Em and Dad reading an alphabet book.

At this point on the VHS tape, there's 30 minutes or so of a Garrettford production of the Nutcracker, which Scott was in. I've made copies of that section of the tape just for Mom and Dad, and Scott. That is DVD #8. I've omitted it from this DVD #6.

Finally, just a few minutes of Em and Dan mysteriously putting pillows in pillow cases for Mom and Dad's bed. Dan uses his head. Literally. It's quite cute.

The disk is about 28 miuntes long. I made copies for everyone. At the end, you may see the very beginning of the content that begins on DVD #7, being a Halloween pumpkin carving scene with Catherine McLaughlin. Don't worry if it's cut off, you get the whole thing on DVD #7.

That is all.
