Nerf Wars (VIDEO)
My son and his friend challenged me to a Nerf War and I, a Nerf pro, absolutely wrecked the noobs. They’re getting better though. Headshots are a great motivator. Sooooo many headshots. This video is also solid proof that battles are the best with Star Wars blaster sound effects added. Stay safe and sane, folks!
Kid’s ENERGETIC Reaction to STAR WARS Episode III: Revenge of the Sith

Honey, I Shrunk the Race Track
Most of the times when I played with miniature vehicles and action figures as a kid (and as an adult if we’re being honest), I’d be sort of above it all, like a looming god of make-believe, or at least like a third-person view in a video game. Sometimes, though, I got down there. Hugging […]

STRESS & Don’t Wake Daddy Game Time (Funny Video)

Father & Son Go Camp Tripping
Though I don’t get to do as much of it as I’d like these days, I loved camping as a kid. My parents did, too. Which always works out great; when the budgetary stars, parental planets and children moons all align for something. The camping I did as I got older became a lot more […]

Kid’s Complex Reaction to Rogue One a Star Wars Story
Watching the Star Wars saga with my son has been one of the most amazing experiences for me.

His passion and exhilaration are completely contagious. […]
