Family Night at La Salette ...

 

Family Night at La Salette

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #01078

Tonight we went to La Salette Shrine to see the lights and also to participate in a prayer service with the school. We gathered at the Nativity scene and had the service. Then we walked around the grounds to see the lights. They are as beautiful as they always are and the night was mild so it was nice to walk around and check them out.

We also took a walk around inside the nativity scene collection. They have so many of them and they are beautiful. So many countries and materials. Amazing.

After looking at the nativity sets we walked around the little pond that has the nativity alphabet. We try and get a shot on the far end of the pond to capture all the lights behind us. My phone has a cracked front camera so every photo I take with it has weird light effects. It was even worse when there is nothing but a bunch of lights. I get crazy lens flares. I used Allison’s phone for the full family selfie.

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.
