Last week we were going through some things and Bill found a few lost toys. The aquarium was Ashley's when she was a baby. It attached to her crib and lulled her to sleep every single time. Very good investment,because at the time it was $40. They no longer sell that one,but have one that I like for $50 that is a jungle theme. When Bill found the aquarium it was like finding a little treasure and we thought we'd save a few bucks. Much to our dissapointment after 9 years it didn't work.. Being Bill, he tore into it with Ashley's help. He knew he would figure out just what was wrong. He fixed lots of stuck gears and such,but there's one thing that he can't fix without ruining the whole thing. The fish are supposed to be on magnets that are inside the sealed up part. The magnets let them swim around. He got everything else working though.and debating on keeping it or not. Obviousally not as entertaining. It was a cool find and Ashley was really excited in helping try and fix her old toy.

Bill also found this pop up tent. We had promised Ashley we'd go camping. It has been soooooo hot or stormy that it just never happened this summer. We put the little tent together,stuck it on her bed(for comfort) and she had a fun time camping out with her dolls.
