Andy and Ocean Science

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #00464

My kids are so very lucky. They have a great extended family. My in-laws sent them a basketball hoop so they could continue to keep active and safe during isolation. My parents dropped off a few things for us including a baby photo and some of my old books for the kids. My sisters Facetime with the kids and set up family Zoom sessions weekly. Also, My sister Tara has set up an additional Science curriculum for both kids and she works with both of them weekly. This is a poster that Andy made for his Ocean section, specifically coral reefs. We have giant paper from when Allison was an administrative assistant long ago. It has been kicking around the house and now is being used for all sorts of things. Andy enjoyed being able to make a this coral reef to show Auntie.

Later tonight the kids and Allison watched the Dolphin Reef movie on Disney + while I had my Krav Class in the basement. I guess there was a moment when a shark appeared on screen and at the same moment I must have punched the heavy bag really hard and made the house shake which made everyone upstairs jump that much more.

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.
