Blood Moon

The moon looks so cool tonight.  I took out Dad's longest zoom lens and captured this.

Lego Bastion

One more Overwatch set: a big Bastion.

Ooh, this is gonna be good.

In robot form.

And in turret form.

Lego Overwatch Battle

Now we have enough Lego sets built for a 6 v. 6 setup.  Let's go!

Pharah and Mercy taking to the skies.

Tracer battles Reaper.

Widowmaker lining up her shots.

Here come more heroes!

D.Va taking on Reinhardt and Genji.

Repositioning.

It's an all-out battle!

Overwatch is so fun!  Glad to have these heroes as Legos!

Making Stress Balls

Little James is feeling sick and feverish so he gets bundled up and fed popsicles.

Meanwhile Hailey is building her own stress balls with Evan as assistant.

Lego D.Va & Reinhardt

Building D.Va's mech.

And on to Reinhardt's armor.

So cool!

And with their minifigures out in front.

Lego Watchpoint: Gibralter & Tracer vs. Widowmaker

The biggest Lego Overwatch set (on left) goes along with the smallest (in progress, center).

Overwatch Legos: Dorado Showdown & Hanzo vs. Genji

Resuming our Lego building from Christmas.

Lego Overwatch. There's Reaper, McCree, & Soldier 76.

Evan loves building Legos. He can't keep any new sets untouched.

Moving the payload!

I built this one myself after putting the kids to bed. There's Hanzo & Genji plus a goon.

Painting & Rescue Animals

We stayed the night at Nana's house. Here we are on day 2 in Santa Clarita.

At Color Me Mine the kids each picked out their own ceramics to paint: a tree for James.

Spiderman for Evan.

But the new Miles Morales Spiderman, all in black.

A princess for Hailey.

They were so happy to paint it all themselves.

I helped Evan with some of the detailed areas.

Looking good there, Evan!

So pretty!

Having some of Mommy's green juice.

  

Jeni found this Farm Sanctuary nearby where we could visit some animals.

These are all rescue animals who would've otherwise been farmed for meat.

Petting the sheep and goats.

How's it going there, you sheep?

And there were two baby sheep!

Talking with the donkey.

This cow was just chillin.

The boys tried to feed him some straw.

I don't think he wants any, guys.

Oh, but this cow wanted to lick Hailey.

Ha ha ha ha!

And we finished off by seeing these huge pigs.

They just wanted to lie around and sleep.
