Whether your family celebrates Christmas, Hanukkah or Kwanzaa, holidays are about making memories with family, especially all those special moments with the kids. My four children -- triplets plus one all born within a year -- are now approaching or are in college now and I cannot tell you how thankful I am for all the photos and video we took of them as they were growing up.

As I've learned from personal experience -- and you will too if you have little ones now -- kids grow up in the blink of an eye and the years really do fly by quicker than you expect. That's why is so important to have a good camera like the Canon EOS Rebel T5i that's available at Best Buy.
