The boys were so excited to get my latest Buzz Kit!  KRE-O Building set.  I waited a few days after I received it to let them open it but man once I did it kept them busy for hours!   They added the pieces to their Lego/ Micro Block collection and they worked quite nicely together.  The boys loved the sounds from The Sonic Motion Technology.  JJ (5) did have a bit of trouble putting the Dr. Mayhem figure together but with a little help he got it.  I like that the pieces work with their other building sets and are actually less expensive.  They have already asked for some more of the Cityville Collection from Santa.

Overall I think these sets are great and if your child like Legos or other building sets I would highly recommend them!

First Day of School....

Right before leaving the house

The boys in front of the school

On the playground

Noah Rico First Day of 2nd Grade

Jacoby Javier First Day of Kindergarten

The boys with Daddy

Noah getting ready to go in

JJ getting ready to go in
 All in all it was a good day...yes there were some tears from me!  Both boys were excited to start the school year.  Noah's teacher is Mrs. Seeley and JJ has Mrs. Williamson.  We will get to meet both teachers at Open House on the 19th.  We were a little sad that JJ's 2 friends James and Willie were not in his class but James' cousin is so at least he knew someone!

A Day at the Museum!

As a last Summer hoorah Grammy and Popsi took the family to the Boston Museum of Science!  I have so many fond memories as a child sent in that building.  The museum has changed so much but a good time was had by all.  It was cheaper to buy the yearly pass so we will be going again in a few months and I cant wait!




Building bobsleds at the Hands On Engineering

My favorite part...The Lighting Show


The T-Rex print is as big as Ryry!

After the Museum we went 45 minutes in the wrong direction then 10 minutes to far in the right direction before finding Faneuil Hall for dinner!

The boys were so tired they were asleep as soon as their heads hit the pillows.  Thanks so much Grammy and Popsi for a fun and educational day....cant wait to do it again!  Only maybe this time without getting lost in Boston?!?!?!
