Atlanta Brick Con 2025: The Biggest Year Yet!

February 24, 2025February 23, 2025 Mrs. The Family Brick

What an incredible weekend we had at Atlanta Brick Con 2025! Aside from getting the flu that weekend, we had a wonderful time! (Yes, I’m finally feeling better, but it did take me all this time to get back to the blog to post about the event.) The halls of Gas South were absolutely buzzing

January 7, 2025January 5, 2025 Mrs. The Family Brick

You’re not alone as you wouldn’t be the only one struggling with LEGO Winter Village storage. Each year, I see plenty of posts from new LEGO lovers asking how people pack away their stets.

Winter Village Time Lapse

Setting Up Winter Village Time Lapse Edition

November 30, 2023November 29, 2023 Mrs. The Family Brick

Two years ago, I decided I would record a Winter Village time lapse video while we set up for Atlanta Brick Con 2021. I’ve never done a time lapse video, so this was definitely a new thing for me. Don’t judge me that it’s taken me this long to share it with you! I wanted

Where In the World is The Family Brick?

November 3, 2023November 3, 2023 Mrs. The Family Brick

It’s funny you should ask. Last year, we spent the last half saying good bye to our sweet 4-legged friend of 13 years. He was a wonderful little boy who brought us so much joy and laughter. It made for a slightly sad holiday. With his passing, we quickly realized we are a dog family.

February 2, 2022February 1, 2022 Mrs. The Family Brick

I don’t know about you, but I find myself coming back to LEGO in seasons. I’ll play hard for a bit and then work will pick up, or activities with friends and family, events at church, etc… and I find myself stepping away. These last year though, I suspect the story has been the same

Observations on Packing Up an Expanding MOC

January 25, 2021January 24, 2021 Mrs. The Family Brick

You know that excitement you get when you’re getting ready to decorate for Christmas? It’s the same excitement we feel when pulling out our LEGO Winter Village build… and definitely NOT what we feel when packing up an expanding MOC. That’s what we spent the weekend before last doing. Well, that, and cleaning our laundry
