Thoughts on the Nintendo Switch & I Found Super Mario Hot Wheels

MY Super Mario Hot Wheels Finds
Photo-A-Day #4216

I know that I am way behind in talking about this but I’m excited about the Nintendo Switch. This is the next gaming system from Nintendo and is coming out in March 2017. Can March get her sooner? Please!

This looks like a really amazing system. I love the Wii U and especially the Gamepad. This has been great to play for the past five years. I bought it so that I could play Skylanders Giants and so many other games. I can play while the TV is on so I can do two things at once.

I was playing a lot tonight. I am currently playing Skylanders Imaginators and having a great time. I made a couple of new Skylanders today and also opened some of the mystery treasure chests that contain nine pieces for creating Imaginators. I am still not sure why you would buy these but I got a couple to make a video, of course, I did not have time at all to actually put the video together. We made parts of one but I didn’t complete it. I need to compile them all.

Speaking of not completing something. I only found 5 out of the 6 Super Mario Hot Wheels Character cars. I was unable to find Yoshi. I was going to show you them when I found all six but I ended up playing video games all night while watching TV with Allison. So, I made this very quick vlog today.

Trepidation Awaits

Trepidation
Photo-A-Day #4164

Andrew’s day was all about starting off full of nervousness and trepidation. We had Open House at his Kindergarten class this morning and he wasn’t feeling that great about it. The feelings started last night. He told Allison and I that his stomach hurt. There was no upset stomach, just nervous about something new. And… as I expected, we were the last ones to leave the Open House. He didn’t want to go. He’s so excited to go back tomorrow.

Later tonight I took Andrew to his first real karate class. He was crying and pushing into me. He wouldn’t talk to the kids that he knew and he was just so upset. I talked calmly with him and we tried again. Then the Sensei came over and took Andrew under his wing. Andrew got right on to the mat and tried really hard during his lesson. When it was over he couldn’t wait to go back. This is what today was like.

In today’s vlog I talk about all that but also do some unboxing of some Star Wars Funko Pop figures and a set of Star Wars Hot Wheels that I found. These were some great toys that I was excited to find and unbox. The Pops were from Barnes & Noble and a bunch of gift cards that I had. They have a large selection of all sorts of pop culture items. In addition to Star Wars they also have a whole Harry Potter section of Pops and much more.
