Spring (Fall) Break

My kids are going to grow up to be seriously confused. We live in the Southern hemisphere so it's supposed to be fall right now, but they just had Spring Break. And in the winter, they get summer vacation.

Anyway, Everett made some fun Bionicle creations over Spring (Fall) Break and I promised I'd post them for everyone to see. He was anxiously waiting for me to get around to taking the pictures so it was (obviously) quite a chore to pose for the photos! The first one is designed to be a hat and the 2nd has light-up eyes so it took a bit of concentration to make sure they were actually lit for the picture.

While I still had the camera out, Simon caught this tiny gecko. He loved playing with it and cracked up when the gecko climbed all around his neck and onto his head. He had just peeled an orange and we discovered that geckos like oranges -enough to lick Simon's dirty hands for a long time!
