That Beanbag Blog

Well, today Colin (my son), got his first bean bag chair. His Grandpa got it for him at Garden Ridge in Lousville, KY. Colin has had his eye on a bean bag chair since Chirstmas, when he discovered one at his cousin Ryan's house. The bean bag chair is black, so it can be moved from room to room without much of a color clash. He was able to break it in a little bit tonight, and I am sure he will use it to the best of his ability for many years to come. This is a pretty boring blog post, but I just wanted to keep the ball rolling, and this is the best I could come up with. At least Colin is happy. Faithful blog follower, you should definitely head out to your nearest bean bag chair retailer and pick up your own bean bag chair. Tune in next time, when I will discuss the finer points of JJ Abrams newest creation - FRINGE.

Disney Pin Trading

I have officially thrown my hat into the Walt Disney World Pin Trading Community. I bought 4 different pins off eBay the other day, and they are really nice. I got a few Wilderness Lodge pins, and a D-Ticket pin from Disneyland. The coolest pin I have ever seen by far is the pin depicting Walt Disney's personal letterhead from 1922. I don't really plan to collect a great deal of these pins, I just saw a great deal on the ones I bought and couldn't pass them by. I will most likely stick to what I know, and just collect ones pertaining to The Wilderness Lodge, Pop Century, The Animal Kingdom, and any rare or really cool looking ones that tickle my fancy. On the plus side, purchasing these pins off eBay is much cheaper than shilling out 8.95 in the parks, so I will keep an eye pealed on the internet. I'll be sure to keep you informed of my WDW pin purchases, check back here early and often.
