Twenty One Pilots Stressed Out!! The Video that Replaced "What does the fox say?"

Lately, My kids and I have become obsessed with this video. I think it has to do with the awesome handshake and the Big Wheel Bicycles. My youngest and I listen to it nearly every night. My husband is a bit over it. What do you think?

Did you make a Summer bucket list?

Some are good for Rainy days also.   We have been working on ours all summer and have went out of town for a few field Trips. I will be sharing those as I get the time.
