Eva's First Weekend Home From College

Photo-A-Day #02826

Eva came home from college on Friday night for the holiday weekend. It also happened to be Eva's birthday weekend. I was at the office that night and also at the office on Saturday night. So, I was not able to spend that much time with Eva. However, I did take Eva for breakfast on Saturday morning to continue our yearly tradition of a birthday breakfast together. 

Tonight we had a meal of Eva's choosing to celebrate their birthday. Eva chose steak and roasted potatoes for dinner and wanted whoopie pies instead of a cake. Andy and Allison made the whoopie pies and Andy added the birthday candles to the pile. I grilled the steak that we all enjoyed.

It has been really nice having Eva back home for the first time. Allison was able to spend some extra time with Eva and when Andy came home from the football game on Friday they also got to spend time with Eva. It was a nice time for everyone.

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.
