liesl’s secret pal video

August 10, 2011 · 9 comments

my 17 year-old daughter liesl has been a camp counselor for much of the summer. the staff and counselors of the camp have “secret pals” (like secret santas), and give each other little gifts of encouragement. after giving her secret pal a couple physical gifts, she was out of ideas for the third gift. then, thinking about the fact that her pal is the guy who makes the camp videos, decided to make this video for him. it totally cracked me up.

seriously, i have the most awesome kids.

Your daughter is creative… and funny.

That bathroom stall moment really made me laugh out loud.

@sam — that’s flogging molly. such an awesome band, and (i’m proud to say), one i introduced liesl to that is now one of her favorites.

Nothing like some AWESOME irish punk music to make ANY video that much better! Haven’t heard them in a while. And the bathroom break was super funny!
