Gingerbread Kids


Photo-A-Day #3532

We are fans of the Pepperidge Farm’s Gingerbread Family. I picked up a box for our trip up to New Hampshire. I just posted a nice long post about that trip over on Cooper and Kid. Click the link to check it out. Anyway we didn’t end up getting to those snacks on the trip so they came home with us. Eva came home from Dance and had a snack before bed an that is what she chose. I hadn’t gotten my photo for the day so I had her hold it up so I could shoot with my NX1 and the Macro lens. Came out pretty nice, very sharp.

New Skylanders Minis – Fire Elements


Photo-A-Day #3531

I ran over to Toys R Us tonight before picking up Eva. I heard that some new Skylanders Minis had been released yesterday but I was too tired to go and wait for the store to open on Sunday morning so I went to sleep instead. Luckily the figures were still there on Monday night. I think I got the last two. The ones that I didn’t have already were the Fire Element Skylanders Minis. These guys are Small Fry and Weeruptor. These have never been released before and I was excited to get them. There were also some Water Element ones Thumpling and Gill Runt but I already have two Gill Runts and one Thumpling from previous releases.

I have been going through each of my boxes of Skylanders – They are boxed by element – and leveling each character up to level 20 by playing the Kaos Challenge. So, each new figure gets to level twenty when I get them. I took both of these guys up to Level 20 right away because I am working on my Fire Element box of Skylanders. I have three boxes left to go, Fire, Life and Tech.

I also picked up two Wii U games, Super Smash Bros. and Mario Kart 8. More on that later.
