Catching Up With An Old Friend

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #01309

Today I went to lunch with an old friend of mine, Derek. He and his family were home for a visit to his parents. He had reached out a while back to say that the next time he was home we should catch up. He had a lot of things going on this week but we were able to squeeze in a lunch at Boneyard BBQ.

Of course, he caught me while I was out to breakfast with Allison this morning. We had attended the parent’s meeting at Feehan this morning to discuss ways in which we could help out and volunteer at the high school. Then we went to Cafe Locale for our breakfast and Derek texted me that he had time for lunch today. Well I didn’t want to miss my one opportunity to hang out so I said sure and we met up at Boneyard.

We had a really nice meal and conversation together. It was good to catch up after such a long time. It is nice to know that friends can go off and live their lives and then when you come back together for a time it is as if nothing ever changed. It was a very nice time together.

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.
