I am a very lucky Dad. I have two amazing children and a great wife. We spent the morning at Church together. Then I headed home to sleep. I slept for the day and woke up at 5 to a delicious dinner and some sweet cards from the kids and gifts from everyone. Andrew picked up a giant package of Bunch ‘O Balloons for a future water balloon fight. Each year we have a fun giant water balloon fight and I can’t wait for this year’s battle. Allison found me a great Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Funko Pop tshirt. It was one I had seen before and considered picking up for myself. Eva picked out the Black Lion from Voltron. She knows that this is my favorite lion because of Shiro played by Josh Keaton. We also watch the show together and we are looking forward to season three of the show.
Dinner was steak and corn on the cob. Allison even used the new steak rub that I received from Netflix. Dinner was just what I wanted and we took some time to really enjoy being together. I wish that I didn’t have to go in to work tonight but at least it is Summer vacation and we can spend more time together during the week.
It has been a little while since I’ve done a complete Toy Haul type video. I’ve been picking a few things up recently and looking at how I can better show the toys as I review, unbox and talk about them. I picked up a new little table to use after seeing one at Brian’s house. I’ll be using that in tomorrow’s video. The toys I mention int his post are for reviews that I want to do on my other blog, Big Damn Kid. I’m trying to break it up a bit with all the Transformers comic books.
Speaking of those. I have been feverishly trying to get way ahead on them because of next week’s trip to San Diego for Dad 2.0. I’m real excited to get out there but I don’t want to lose the momentum of the new channel. I can’t exactly say why I’m going so hard after it since it isn’t really generating an audience yet. I will have to start watching some Transformers videos and see if I can attract anyone to the new channel and blog. I love Transformers and it has been years of my collecting them. I even went to my parent’s this past week and looked through my collection. I didn’t do too much crawling around to get to everything but there are quite a few boxes in the attic. I’d like to go through my whole collection as individual review videos. Some unboxing videos and more. We’ll see. For now I have the video below of some of my more recent purchases.
