Andy’s Birthday at One Up Games

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #01055

Today was Andy’s birthday party. We held it at One Up Games in Plainville, Ma. This location has a bunch of video game systems, some air hockey, pool and also a stand up cabinet system with 10,000 video games. We had about 15 kids at the party and ordered some pizza and Allison made an amazing Minecraft cake and cupcakes.

The theme of the party was Minecraft and I figured that the kids would all play together in the game but instead they played all sorts of things. Some played together and some played independently. Eva and I played some air hockey together, too. I even got to play some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games and Spy Hunter on the stand up cabinet. Andy’s favorite game was a virtual reality game, too.

This was a great place to hold a birthday party. The people there were very nice. They don’t even bill until they get the final count of kids that came that day, so that was a good thing. I appreciated that a lot.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo.
