Happy New Year! Yesterday morning, we got up and made our way to the LEGO store, as is our custom. We picked up the LEGO Natural History Museum (10326) and several of the LEGO Minifigures Series 25 minifigures. With that, we got to walk away with the LEGO Retro Food Truck (40681) gift with purchase.

6 Quick Delivery Non LEGO Gifts for LEGO Lovers
I’m in the last days of my Christmas shopping where I start looking for non LEGO gifts for LEGO lovers. As you can imagine, I have many of those in my life… including Mr. Family Brick and The Little Brick. We also already have a ton of LEGO brick in our house. Therefore, these days
Setting Up Winter Village Time Lapse Edition
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?
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.
Taking Our Winter Village to Atlanta Brick Con 2022 Next Weekend!
I can’t tell you how long it’s been since we last took our Winter Village to any event. As a matter of fact, I dug through the blog archives and found we last took the village for display was in 2017 to the Books and Bricks event at the Marietta library! So you know I’m
Coming Back To LEGO
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
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
LEGO Second Christmas 2020
As I mentioned in our last post, we spent New Years Eve planning out our LEGO purchases for the 1st. It’s the day I like to affectionately call “LEGO Second Christmas”. The day you get to pick up all the sets you didn’t get…and to spend all that Christmas moola you received on newly released
Merry LEGO Christmas!
It’s Christmas! I feel like we’ve been looking forward to this day since Halloween. Somehow it has taken forever to get here and simultaneously got here too quick. Regardless, I hope you’re having a wonderful Christmas morning with your family and/or friends. We are spending time with family, so don’t think I actually wrote this
Our Basement LEGO Room
So, we’ve been hiding out in our basement LEGO room. Long time, no see, right? I know it’s been a minute. When the pandemic hit, we, like many of you guys as well, spent our time trying to work while acting as teacher/short-order cook/entertainment director. It was exhausting. And little by little, we’ve began to
