lightkits on a budget? - GoFuckYourself.com

I'm planning on only shooting my kids and some family. I will be in my basement using my projector screen and I also have a thin black cloth I can put over it. I'm doing some other setup things like having the kids sitting on top of a toy box covered with a blanket.

My big weakness right now is lighting. Should I just go with a pair of umbrella lights or anybody have other suggestions? Currently I only have the camera flash and I think a couple umbrella lights would probably be all that I NEED.

I want to keep the spending to only around $100, do you guys have some suggestions? I know thats a joke compared to what you studio guys throw down but this is mainly just going to be to get some good pics of the kids without having to get raped by studio pricing.
