I am looking for a good freeware program. I would like it to have a timeline with drag and drop options. I have several videos and would like to be able to add pictures inbetween the clips. The ability to add background music would be a nice plus. I am making a video of my boys for my wife as part of her anniversary. Any help on this would be great!!!!!!!!!!

You could try Jasc Animation shop. It's a free 30-day trial and you can find it on cnet.com Not sure if it can do everyting you need, but I think it can.
