Fathead Black Friday Sale

Just thought I'd point out that there is a Black Friday sale going on for Fatheads. Fatheads are large removable stickers or decals that can be used to decorate a room. My son (6 years old) received a GIANT Spider-Man Fathead for his birthday in September and it has proudly been decorating the wall by his bed. He loves it! Today there is a big sale, so if you were wavering, and you want an opinion... they rock! We just bought the Tinkerbell Fathead for my 2 1/2 year old daughter. She's going to love it!

Also, note that there are discount codes all the time for Fatheads, just google it! No discounts can be used with the current sale, and the prices are good!

Here's a picture, from the Fathead website, of the Spider-Man Fathead my son has:

Shrek The Musical

My parents took my son (6 years old) to see Shrek the Musical on Broadway. Bottom line: HE LOVED IT! He came home after a LONG day in the City with Grandma and Grandpa (lunch, show, dinner, walking...) and couldn't wait to tell my wife and I about it. He was singing the songs, telling us about the makeup, explaining that Lord Farquaad was really a guy on his knees, and he said the show was so funny he was laughing the whole time ["daddy, it was hysterical"- Grandma and grandpa said it was cute].
