I mentioned awhile back that my best friend’s mom is trying to win some money to help finance a skatepark for my old hometown. This is a small farm town that I loved growing up in, but that really lacked in activities for the pre-teen/teenagers there. They didn’t win the money last time, […]

I came across this site for SEE Toys (I can’t even remember how that happened, now), and I thought it was an interesting thought toward more earth-friendly toy production. Here’s a quote from their website:

Like I said before, the feeling of summer being over and fall pushing its way in is definitely being experienced around here (in every way except the weather—it’s still wicked hot here!).

Check out Hsien and her family’s exciting news surrounding the Transformers this week! It’s Stephen’s first moment of celebrity! At least, his first that I’m aware of. :) That’s one proud mama, there, as she should be. :)

Visiting a family member’s house this weekend, where there happens to be construction going on, the boys were introduced to the biggest mountain of dirt that they’ve ever been able to enjoy firsthand!
