Out annual trip to MC home to celebrate Sukkot.
Jess, JMan and mysterious headless boy.
Hmmm not there all hiding!
JMan builds a fire truck
While visiting Home Depot in Leominster last weekend we discovered their monthly activity. All kids big and small could build and paint wooden fire trucks.

More to the point what will I be?

If you said gun rest you’d be right.
See Science Center Manchester NH
Yesterday was a great day for hanging out indoors. While my better 1/2 was at work (yes on Sunday) I took the kids and headed north.
The See Science Center has many interesting exhibits for kids and adults alike. It has a really nice Lego display of the mills in Manchester as there were at the turn of the century (1900’s that is). Cool to think that folks still work in them today.
The above is my office!
Here’s GMan having fun with Lego’s
JMan gets a new do! This exhibit shows how a airplane wing works. However, JMan wanted nothing to do with that.
GMan checks out the vertical guitar.
JMan plays with power.
JMan making electricity.
The next time the power goes out we’re getting one of these!
Birthday cup cake
So today in the day. 10 years ago the GMan came out to play.
This next video was GMan’s idea. Perhaps it’s a pre curser to crushing beer cans on his head in college!

Challah
GMan made Challah in class this am. He decided to re-make and Jess took some to make a second.
Here’s the results.
Here it is actual size.
Yes, that’s a quarter!
Here’s GMans attempt. It’s more of a Challah bun, but he’s got the New Year shape correct.
L’Shana Tova
Simon the fish
We acquired a family fish. Meet Simon, he’s a Betta or commonly known Siamese Fighting Fish.
Go here for more information.
Here’s Simon.
GMan’s birthday
It’s GMan’s birthday this week so we are doing the cool stuff today.
We started in the Hard Rock cafe in Boston. GMan’s friend W from school came along.
GMan was sufficiently embarrassed by the screaming happy birthday routine they do here.
However the bonus is the ice cream sunday.
The icing on the cake was Blue Man Group.
If you have not seem it……go!
All ready for the flying bananas, paint, Captain Crunch or what else makes it off the stage.
With second row seating we managed to get slimed a few time. At this range you also need a good stomach as well as good reflexes! But at any distance it’s a great show and very funny.
GMan and W meet a Blue Man post show in the lobby. These guys are great at keeping straight faces. Even during photo time they stay in character. However, during the Captain Crunch routine one did crack a smile at his drooling crunch, but managed to keep it together. We on the other hand didn’t know whether to laugh or be totally grosses out, we chose a combination but leaned toward laughter.
GMan’s buddy W
Blue Man meets Green Man!
The whole gang meets Blue Man
W and GMan show off their true spots.
After show pick me up….commonly know as an SB fix.
Paparazzi discovered.
Happy birthday GMan….here’s to many many more. Love Dad
