The First Day of Summer 2017

First Day of Summer
Photo-A-Day #4453

On the first day of Summer Andrew is not feeling himself at all. He’s lethargic and not interested in eating. He says that his legs are tired. We didn’t go to Karate because of this and instead I took Eva out for some Father/Daughter time for ice cream. I was going to take the whole family, but again, Andrew not feeling quite right. We were concerned so much that I slept ont he floor of his room overnight in case he got up and got sick. Probably not the best place to sleep if we thought he’d get sick but just to be close enough so that I could do something if he needed me.

Taking Eva out for Ice Cream was nice. We had some really good bonding time together. I wish that I could spend much more time with her. She is such a sensitive soul and so passionate for things that she loves. She’s taken to Stop Motion with her LEGO bricks and it is very cool. I need to spend more time with her on helping her improve her skills. She has great ideas but needs help on some execution and technique. She has no shortage of ideas.

Tonight I unboxed a few things that came in the mail. I backed a Kickstarter for a thing called the MicRig. This finally arrived and it is pretty decent. I also got my Marvel Unlimited 3 year gift box, it has some cool stuff inside. Take a look in the video.

Avengers Inspired Hot Wheels


Photo-A-Day #3705

I’ve been eyeing this Avengers 5-Pack of cars at Target for months. The set was $18 for the longest time and I just couldn’t bring myself to get 5 cars for that much. I was in the store last night looking for a birthday gift for a family friend and saw that the set and a bunch of Marvel themed track sets were on clearance for more than 1/2 off so I jumped at the purchase. I have some other Marvel themed Hot Wheels cars that are also based on the Avengers but not ones that incorporate their costumes. I know of several others and I’m looking for those to close out my collection.

I’ve been reading tons of Avengers comics through my Marvel Unlimited subscription. This has been a great purchase because I’m catching up on so many cool storylines. Right now I’m reading the New Avengers storyline from 2004 (I think) and it is right after the whole Civil War and now there is a Skrull infiltration. I wonder if Skrulls will be part of the Marvel cinematic universe.
