My Best to Date

I made this today along with about 100 kiosk buttons. It's awesome, I know. Blake told me this is my best work to date. I'm thinking about having it framed. If you like it too feel free to download it and hang it up wherever you have an empty spot that's begging for something awe inspiring.

I had to make four of these signs. On one of them I got a little creative and turned the arrow 90 degrees clockwise to make it point left. 

After work I went grocery shopping and then at home I played with Legos with Parker while Emily, Becky and her parents took down all the Hot Wheels from my Hot Wheels room. The room now belongs to Parker and Linkin. Parker and I had fun. We love Legos.

Free the Toys!

In the afternoon Becky and I looked through some boxes to try and find Emily's old Bob the Builder toys. We found them along with a giant box that I've got part of my action figure collection in. I got a bunch of them out and decided to have some fun.

Now we just have to rescue the others...

The story continues on flickr.

The Whole World Loves Legos

When I went on my flickr account this morning I had 318 total hits for yesterday and most of those came from my Lego photos.


People really love to see Legos, so I'm going to start taking pictures of all the stuff I've built. I still have my favorite creations from when I was a kid.

Everybody Loves Legos

On September 8th I got 110 views on flickr. My stats show me how many people check out my photos and it also shows me which photos are being viewed.

Then today I joined the LEGO Group and added this photo to the group 

and then it got more attention than any of my other photos. 

People just love Legos.

Cleaning, Toys and Salmon

We just stayed home for the holiday. Parker had the Fly wrestling with C3P-0.

Linkin zappelte, chatted, ate and slept.
I tried to get organized.
Becky made a great salmon dinner with asparagus, corn on the cob, carrots and potatoes.

Then we drove to Wal-Mart and Target to get a few things. Now Devastator is available. He's massive.

This droid has fabulous thighs.

Gogo's Birthday

Today is Gogo's birthday. We drove to her place since we were the only ones in town.

The kids were excited to see her.

While we were there we went to the exercise room. Parker showed her that he lost his second tooth. I don't know if he'll put it under his pillow. The first tooth he kept instead of giving it to the tooth fairy. He wanted to keep it to remember his little teeth. He might keep this one as well.




Becky made her a white cake from scratch.
While the kids played with the Lincoln Logs with Gogo I took pictures of my Hulk figure that Emily gave me long ago. I've decided to open a lot of my figures that I've been collecting over the years and shoot pictures of them. 

There will be more toys to come... plus, you can see all my photos on flickr. Just click on the link on the top right.

The Fly figure that I gave Parker. He took it with to play with so I took his picture too.

Then Parker wanted to take a couple pictures.

Gogo said she had a fun time.

R7-T1

Today we spent the morning and afternoon cleaning, organizing and moving things around. 

In the early evening Becky went with Emily and Parker grocery shopping. While I was tinkering around in the basement I opened up four Star Wars figures that come with parts to build a droid. I found three of the parts and had to get a leg from another droid to complete the R7-T1 Droid. My droid has a red R2-L3 leg.

I love taking pictures of my toys. So here are the four figures and the Droid I was able to create.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Saesee Tiin

Mon Calamari Warrior

and the Quarren Soldier.

When Becky got home Emily had a little Crowntail Betta fish and a little aquarium. She was really excited.
