Wife and I went swimming with manatees this morning at Crystal River on our mini-honeymoon. Amazing creatures.

Nice houses.  A bit of advice for the next houses you do. Decorate the roof tops first, let the candies/design setup, then put them in place. Your pieces won't slide off the roof.. Just a thought. lol  Kudos on the houses. lol

OMG.  I don't know why this has never occurred to me!  Seriously, never thought about doing it that way.

Looks like a candy coated massacre out back. Didn't know gingerbread men bleed blue.

Yea, I usually design the sides, roof, then piece together. I found it's easier. lol   Trial and error. HHAHAHA

That was supposed to be a small frozen pond, and the Gingerbread Man skating.  But I like your explanation better.

I got married this past weekend. Here's our wedding cake.  Needless to say, the wife found it quite charming.

The Gingerbread Massacre of 2018.

Just got back from the local Mall - lifesize Bugatti Chiron on display.. i mean THAT one and only Chiron built in Kladno factory..   beauty.. you can even control the lights and motor functions via bluetooth tablet.. 

Thought it was not today, this past weekend my family and I used some of our Lego profits to buy a beagle /cocker spaniel rescue puppy.  I did not even know a puppy was on the radar until a day before it happened.  She is quite the little barker and is now quiet at the moment after a little training.  Fingers crossed.  The kids are so happy!

Times like this help my wife see the value of Lego investing, if only for a moment.

Same story here .. But a goldendoodle pup. No barking, but lots of nipping.

 

We all adore her though ...

 

Arm swooped 90% off Holiday Lights ?

Took a walk on a newly built road while my five year old daughter rode her bike. It was closed to traffic and built into the deep pine woods leading away from town. Pretty amazing. Complete silence and beauty. Hate to see traffic start rolling down it, or the developments start. It was like someone had carved a path just for us.

Congrats on the Goldendoodle. We got a GD puppy last summer but lost it to Parvo. Now we have to wait for the virus to be 100% gone. But fingers crossed we will get another GD this summer. They’re great dogs, enjoy!

Thanks for the tip about Parvo. First time dog owners. Now worried of course, because we've been walking our 9 week old puppy in our neighborhood where there are many other dogs. Guess that's going to stop until she's a few months older ... :-/

Be sure pup has gotten both rounds of shots. Ours had gotten his first round, but based on what we’ve figured out, the pup was infected prior to his first shot.

But even with the first shot, it’s a dangerous, hardy disease, so definitely be careful.

Went to Dillard’s sale in San Antonio .... spent less than when I go lego shopping .... ?. But wife is a lot happier shopping there than lego hunting at target and B&N....

Alright - checked her vet papers - we're past the second Parvo shot already (done within 24hrs of getting her last Thursday). We should be good

Took my kids to Bricklive in Frisco Texas today.  They had a blast.

I must admit, the Marshmello event in Fortnite today was good fun.

Watched DanTDM stream it live ... Awesome stuff. Videogames have come a long way since Pong.

Marshmello posted it, yes I just typed that.
