Barry's Best Xmas Present Ever!

Barry thought it was solar powered, but the boys found a little light on it and the fun was about to begin!
Barry loves it, wanted one since he was a kid.
Look at the smirks on their faces, they have a good specimen apparently!
Brandon gets a sample of blood. I must admit, it was interesting to look at, lots of tiny red circles of varying colors.
Oh boy, they love this one. It must be really gross. Do little boys ever grow up?

Patti got Barry this microscope set for Christmas a couple of years ago and the kids got it out and had a blast. Some pretty unseemly stuff was checked out in high def! Boogies, spit, hair (shaft), and even a sample of blood.
So this was the first present, given by Patti, that Barry didn't even ask for the receipt to exchange it. It seems to be a hit with the whole family.
So if you are having a party and want it to be a hit, go ahead and ask to borrow it, but you'll have to provide your own samples!
