The kids were super silly before bed tonight. So much so that I thin both Allison and I had had it. I had let them watch a little of a new show and that set Andrew going then he got his sister going. While I do enjoy the laughter I did want them to get to bed. I got the laughter. But that did get me some authentic smiles for today’s photo.

I drove down to New York City today for the HoliDAY of Play. I’ve did this same thing last year but had a driving buddy. This time I did it on my own. The ride down was a little boring but I was way more awake on the drive back. I am not sure how that is possible. Getting down to New York has been very easy the last few times but this time my GPS sent me a different way and I ended up on the other side of the island. I still got there right on time. Just with a bit more hassle. No problem, it was a nice day to drive.
The HoliDAY of play is an event where the Toy Insider and the Pop Insider show off their top toys for the holiday season. There were a bunch of great things to see and I was able to chat with quite a few of the PR reps from the different companies that I have been working with for the past few years. I am able to take a look at the toys that I am going to recommend on my own Holiday Gift guide. This will be a video gift guide that I am doing in November. Be on the lookout for that!
I like this event because it is low key. I even put on my ugly sweater to get into the holiday mood. It was also very worthwhile to attend because I ended up winning a Nintendo Switch. Big gift for the kids is all set for Christmas!
