Hasbro’s Marvel Super Hero Spectacular {Video & Giveaway}

October 24, 2015 by Lisa 1 Comment

We were invited to the Hasbro Marvel Super Hero Spectacular event. No compensation was received but we were given a Hasbro gift bag with some really cool goodies.

Marvel Super Hero Spectacular Atypical Familia

I love whenever I can bring Norrin and Joseph to blogging events. I just knew Joseph wouldn’t want to miss an afternoon of Marvel Super Hero fun.

Fun Fact: We Named Norrin After a Marvel Super Hero  

There was candy, toys and we got to watch some episodes from Ultimate Spider-Man: Web Warriors, Marvel’s Avengers Assemble and Guardians of the Galaxy. Joseph and Norrin love Marvel Super Hero cartoons and it was cool to watch it on a big screen.

Our favorite episode was Marvel’s Ultimate Spider Man Web Warriors, “Contest of Champions” where The Collector and The Grandmaster are using Earth’s heroes and villains as pawns in a battle for Earth and power.

When we got home, Norrin couldn’t wait to play with his new toys. Of course we opened up the Play-Doh first.

After Norrin was diagnosed with autism (at two years old), therapists suggested we use Play-Doh. At the time, I couldn’t understand how it could be used therapeutically. Play-Doh was something I associated with childhood fun, so I didn’t think of it as a learning tool.

Play-Doh has helped Norrin with his fine motor skills, socialization, imagination and communication.

I love the Can-Heads. It turns the Play-Doh container into an “action figure” and it just takes Play-Doh creations to another level. The figure parts are functional as they also serve as cool super hero molds. Norrin had a great time playing and creating.

I’ve had these skates for 5 years and I finally I’ve had these skates for 5 years and I finally got to skate in them for real. “Why do my skates feel funny?” I wondered. I assumed it was because I’m not used to roller skates. So I spent the first 15 minutes skating with my skates on the wrong feet 🙄😐🤦🏻‍♀️ but once I fixed them - skating was a little bit easier. 🤣🤣
When the student becomes the teacher… I got to w When the student becomes the teacher… I got to workout with one of my (favorite) former students this morning! From the moment I met her 2 years ago, I knew she was a force to be reckoned with. In the classroom, she is enthusiastic, bright, confident and strong. But at the gym she’s next level! Mel really pushed me today and I know I’ll feel it tomorrow. It wasn’t easy keeping up with this 19 year old. I held my own up until she said 20 minutes on the stair master after our work out. I lasted 5 minutes and then did 15 on the elliptical. 🫠🫠 And obviously we needed a quick locker room photo shoot. 🤣 Also…I don’t know if it’s the angle or the lighting but I can’t believe my arms/back look like that! 😳🥹

Started reading Carmen and Grace by @melissacossaq Started reading Carmen and Grace by @melissacossaquino on the 6 train. By page 5, I had to close the book and take a minute to absorb the words on the page. Ok ok ok, I also may have begun tearing up a bit. I love when a book makes me feel. There are times when I come across a book, and the words are exactly what I need at that precise moment. This is that book, this is the time. “The only way out for you is through.” 🤍

He sent me a video at 7am - fully dressed in his uniform for his 1pm game - and a text saying he was disappointed. 😕  It’s after 12 and he’s still in his uniform.
I didn’t think I’d be able to make his first g I didn’t think I’d be able to make his first game but I surprised him. When he saw me he said, “Mama! What the hell are you doing here?” But he was totally happy to see me. Grateful @d3sportsandrec exists! 💙
After class flex. This month I hit my “goal” w After class flex. This month I hit my “goal” weight and for the first time since before Norrin was born, I’m wearing a size 6 jean. Does it feel good? Yes. It does. But what feels even better is that I feel strong. Stronger than I’ve ever felt in my entire life. Thanks for an amazing class @freelikeoj_allday & @tiabrooks_0106 for always offering to take a picture.

Earlier this week, I was unpacking my spring/summe Earlier this week, I was unpacking my spring/summer clothes. I found 3 dresses that I’ve had forever - probably 15 years. They were probably only worn once. I held on to them, even though I couldn’t fit into them. Because I knew one day, I would fit into them again. Over the last 2 years, I’ve lost some weight but they still didn’t fit last summer. When I tried them on this week, they fit! I haven’t been able to fit into these dresses in more than a decade. And so yesterday I put on the blue dress. I didn’t go anywhere spectacular. I wasn’t on a date. I visited a friend in the neighborhood, went to a meeting and then White Castle (don’t judge me). When I first bought this dress and when it fit, I held on to it - waiting for an occasion. I refuse to do that. I’m not waiting for a man to take me out, or a party or an event. If I want to wear something, I will wear it. I am the special occasion. I am the event. I am worth getting dressed up for. 

Also - I realize that holding on to clothing for 15 years hoping it will fit again is probably not normal. But oh well. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣
