Since I won’t be around this weekend, I’m giving you your reminder right now. The March 2016 LEGO Monthly Mini Build Registration Opens In 3 Days! For those in the states, that’s this coming Monday, the President’s Day holiday. Set an alarm so you don’t forget while you’re setting up your grill for the day… You can read
The last meeting of the Atlanta LEGO User Group, DixieLUG, was held on January 23rd. We had some snow that morning, so we weren’t sure if we would brave the elements or not. A dusting of snow has been known to shut down our area for days. Fortunately, Georgia got their act together before this
At the beginning of this year, LEGO released a bunch of new sets. If you read our LEGO Second Christmas blog post from last month, you’ll see we picked up quite a few. While we are very happy with everything we picked up, one of the new sets was extremely delightful… the LEGO Friends Party Cakes set

On Monday, we visited the LEGO Store for the Minifigure Swap Event. While we did some swapping, I decided I’d take a look at the Build-a-Minifigure bar. I haven’t done an update post on the available minifigure pieces since sometime mid-last year (sorry about that), so I thought it was time for a catch up.
I’ll be the first person to admit I’m not a fan of most LEGO trains. While they’re interesting, and very popular, they’re not my favorite builds. I just don’t find them quite as exciting as say, a modular, or almost any other build for that matter. However, I was delightfully surprised when I checked out
I hope you all had a wonderful Martin Luther King Jr. holiday! That’s what we celebrated around these parts yesterday. While it’s been freezing cold (northerners don’t laugh at that), the smell of charred meats was still in the air. We spent the day with the girl, taking her to do some things she’s been
Last year, we got the chance to see the LEGO Americana Roadshow upclose at our local mall. If you don’t know what it is, the LEGO Americana Roadshow is a tour where you can view large scale models of U.S. landmarks like the White House, Lincoln Memorial and the Statue of Liberty. As an adult,
