A Second Pixel Owner In The House ...

A Second Pixel Owner In The House

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02500

Over the past two years Andy has show some major improvements in responsibility. Andy initially had Eva's old phone which was totally paid off but one day on a trip back from the cape the phone got lost. We've never seen any evidence of it anywhere since that day. So I picked Andy up a very cheap motorola phone. It was the absolutely cheapest phone that Xfinity offered.  It was like $100 total. And that served Andy well for two years. 

Andy turns 14 on Saturday and it is time for a better phone. Last week Andy told Allison that they were interested in a new phone because the one they have right now is completely full and cannot add apps or anything at this point. It was a cheap phone with very little memory. Andy requested a Google Pixel phone. So, I ordered andy a new Pixel 9a. That is the lowest end Pixel phone but it is 3 times as powerful as Andy's current phone.

I waited for the phone to arrive all day and once it did I worked on getting it activated. I had to call Xfinity to get it activated but it worked out pretty easily. We put it in a new case and added a screen protector and Andy is ready to go.

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.
