LEGO Minifigure Swap Monday – January 18th
One of our favorite things about LEGOLAND was the minifigure swap. (Yes, I know, I know. I have *yet* to write my post on our visit to LEGOLAND last year, but I promise I will get that written soon!) It was one of the things we looked forward to on our visit and it completely
Building with LEGO Friends Event – February 13th, 2016
Last year, LEGO hosted what seemed like a one-off LEGO Friends Building Event. It was the only one I remember them having all year long. Looks like it did pretty well as LEGO decided to repeat the event this year on Saturday, February 13th. What Is The Building With LEGO Friends Event I found
LEGO Second Christmas 2015
Oh yes my friends… it’s that time of year again, it’s LEGO Second Christmas! Well, there’s no such thing as a LEGO Second Christmas. It’s what I call January 1st, the time of the year when new LEGO sets are released and we flood the stores to pick them up with our Christmas money burning a

December 2015 LEGO Monthly Mini Build Submarine

What We Opened On Christmas Day
Welcome back everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas day with lots of family, food and fun! Our Christmas was a little “LEGO-lite”. The big present around here was an Our Generation doll from Target. Looks just like the girl and she’s been asking for one for a while. So when she came
Hitting Pause For the Week
I had every intention of writing blog posts this week, but as I sit here across from my daughter who is eating her egg and PopTart breakfast, I suddenly find myself wanting to spend this magical week with her… intentionally… and with full attention. I still have work to do, but as far as my
