Eva Earns Her Brown Belt

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #01081

Eva earned her brown belt in Jr. Krav Maga today. Eva has been progressing very well in the art. She does have to work on her aggression during classes. she has no problem banging me around but she’s less aggressive with a partner. I know she has more power to show in each class but she steps back a little. I’m sure that this will change over time as she gains more confidence in her abilities.

now that she is a brown belt she is on a six-month rotation for her belts. Things get much more intense at this level and she’s about a year and a half out from testing for her black belt. She is still very focused in class and loves going. We haven’t been able to coordinate with her usual partner though. Maybe next week. Eva made her a really nice gift.

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...

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. 

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.
