A Netflix New Year’s Eve and a Look Ahead Vlog

A Netflix New Years Eve
Photo-A-Day #4281

Another year comes to a close and we had quite a trip this 2016. I went to so many fun places on my own and we also had some great family adventures. Cape Cod, Great Wolf Lodge and many more. It was a great year in that respect. Eva has been doing well in school and also in plays and in dance. She loves dance and works really hard with everything. Andrew has been coming along with Karate and even earned his yellow belt. I hope that he continues with that for a long time to come. He also loves school and has been said to be the friendliest child in the class according to the other parents. He does love hugging his pals. Allison is working in First Grade again and having a good year. Her students love her so much.

Today also marks the last day of a little experiment that I started back on January 1. I said that I would take a video every day for a year. I enjoyed it very much and so I decided that I would continue for another year and beyond. I am also going to start a second set of videos on my second channel called Big Damn Kid. On that Channel I will be posting my video reviews of Transformers comic books and probably toys, too. You can see more in the video below.

Eva Reviews It! – My Fairy Garden from PlayMonster

Eva Reviews It! - My Fairy Garden from PlayMonster
Photo-A-Day #4280

We received a My Fairy Garden™ Freya’s Magical Cottage™ for free from PlayMonster to play with and review. Opinions are our own.

Eva took the lead on this review. I selected this product with her in mind. She has always wanted to set up a fairy garden outside and we just don’t do much gardening. This seemed like a great product to use indoors so that she could tend her own little fairy garden. I love that she still has that spirit of curiosity and wonder at things like fairies.

The toy itself is pretty sold in its design. You get everything you need to tend the garden plus a few cute little items to play with like a table and chairs so that there can be tea parties in the fairy garden. I like that there is a small wire that the fairy can be attached to to make it look like she is flying around the garden. It certainly adds to the whimsy of the toy.

When we moved into our house and Eva was just about 5 years old we found a fairy statue out on the side of the house with a broken wing. She made it her fairy that tended to the gardens on the side yard. So, she has always loved fairies and believed that they were in gardens. So glad that she still has some of this left in her heart. Eva can tell you more about the toy in her own words in the video below.
