I was hoping to show you guys photos of our trip to LEGOLand last week, but I’m still working through all the photos! In the meantime, while I was clearing out my photography backlog, I realized I never showed you the new elements I found in the Build-A-Minifigure bar in April 2015. You’ve likely
May 2015 Monthly Mini Build: Koala
For the May 2015 LEGO Koala Monthly Mini Build we’re saying “hi” from sunny Florida! …Although it didn’t look too sunny in the photo above. Instead of our usual Atlanta store, we visited the LEGO Imagination Center at Disney Village. Because of how busy the area is, we weren’t super excited to do the build
LEGOLAND here we come!
If you’re wondering why I only posted once last week, just know our schedule was a bit different because…we were preparing for a trip to LEGOLand Orlando! It was an absolute blast! I’d love to share more photos with you and give you a review of the park; however, my laptop doesn’t have much space
LEGO Ideas: Winter Farm
My mind is on winter right now since we’re working on our winter village display. So when I saw this LEGO Ideas mock for a Winter Farm by Sandro Damiano, I fell in love! Just look at this building. The combination of brown and reddish brown bricks gives the farm an “old” feel full of
April 2015 LEGO Club Meeting
Last Saturday morning, we were up bright and early to make our way to the April 2015 LEGO Club meeting at our local store. It was a packed house today, with tons of parents hanging out on the floors helping their kids build. The story was that our UFO mini build was landing on
New LEGO Pick-a-Models on Pick-a-Brick Wall
If you haven’t set foot in a LEGO store since March, you may have missed the revamp to the LEGO Pick-a-Brick walls that rolled out on the first. Now when you visit your local store, there is a build associated with the Pick-a-Brick wall and the elements sold. May I introduce you to “Pick-a-Model”… This
To buy or not to buy LEGO Stephanie’s Beach House
I have this conversation a lot when I’m with my husband and I run into the LEGO Stephanie’s Beach House set… Me: I really like the set. Him: Yea? Me: Yes. That yellow color calls to me. Him: So buy it. Me: I can’t. Him: Why not? Me: Because I’m really annoyed LEGO used those
Winners of the Complete The Room Challenge
So by now you may be wondering what the results were of the Modulars by Kristel Complete the Room Modular Challenge considering how much I blogged about the contest. I’m sad to say neither of our entries won the challenge. *insert sad face here* However, the baby room did get honorable mention which was a
LEGO Doner Kebab House / Restaurant
Are you feeling hungry? How about some kebabs or shawarma at the Doner Kebab House? I absolutely love this modular. I’m sure it has a lot to do with the fact it serves shawarma. But aside from that, it’s awfully cute and has some great details. Among my favorites are the drink fridge, the bar
April 2015 LEGO Monthly Mini Build: UFO
Continuing the Sci-Fi theme, LEGO had kids building a UFO for the April 2015 LEGO monthly mini build. Some call it a “space” theme, but since the builds have been an alien, a space shuttle, and a robot, I’m more inclined to go with my “sci-fi” label. This month’s mini build was a UFO.
