Career Day

Our Dad recently had the kids come to his work to get a tour of the new building.  It reminded me of two documentaries I'd seen of Google and Pixar, which describe the importance of play in the workplace to help creativity.  

Interactive sensored televisions in the walkways

A road that goes under the building

A camera that follows the person in the room as they walk around.

Muppet Mania!

My kids each got a muppet last year for birthdays and we have built up quite a collection. Something about muppets is just...happy.  It's gotta be the constant smile.  I've written about it once found HERE.  I really want one of those new Muppet kids found at Toys R Us.  They are part of the FAO Schwarz line of toys.  Looks like this:

Anyway...here are our new friends.  

I love this picture so much!

Library's

As you know, I have a "thing" for cute libraries.  Here is a door of a school library that I thought was creative.  

French Fry Mountain

Ever make up a new word or phrase?  Well, in our family, we have what's called the French Fry Mountain where all fries go to one pile and is shared.  I love my daughters face in the background.  Looks yummy!

I miss Elmo

Is it just me or do you feel a little guilty showing your kids Elmo because of recent allegations.  Here are some of my favorite Elmo moments.
