Time to Spread Their Wings

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #01694

This morning we toured Andy’s new school. Andy will be starting middle school here and this will be our first time in public school. I personally never attended any form of public school except for maybe Kindergarten? Pre-school was private, maybe. But from 1st grade to senior year of college and then for the next 5 years after that I was in a private Catholic School. It worked for me and so I figured that it would work for my kids as well. Things do not always work out the way you want them to work. A small Catholic school was not the place for Andy. Some of Andy’s classmates saw to that. We had decided at the end of last year that we were going to move Andy to a new school. Today we got to see inside the school for the first time.

the tour was really nice and the school looks like it offers quite a bit for the students. I like how the classrooms are set up and they have a large gym and cafetorium. Kids and get free school lunches, too. that will help out on those days when we are running late or when we have nothing in the house. Although, I did just get an uncrustables maker that I’d like to try out. That should be fun.

Andy seemed to enjoy the tour and signed up for one of their specials to be band. Andy has expressed that they would like to play trombone. So that should be interesting.

There was so much art around the halls and I was very happy that Andy let me take a photo of them at these great looking wings. I love the messages in the hashtags as well.

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.
