Legos - Legos - Legos

Lego Kids Fest.

Lots of interesting people - got into an interesting conversation with a lady whose beliefs I couldn't quite figure out, was she attacking my Catholicism, agreeing with it, just chit-chatting - only God knows. It was all friendly.

Then there was the little lost girl. How long does a little girl need to wander with a look of insistence on her face before someone helps? (Lego KidsFest has that all under control - everything is well-planned and coordinated with a "Lost Parents" Tent, intercom system, instructions beforehand for preparations (take a camera-photo of your child as you walk in, have a card in the child's shoe with your cell phone #, keep your cell phone on, etc. etc.).

Overall, it was good.

And we got some Lord of the Rings - Hobbit - in too ;)




That's a LOT of one-by-ones. 

Tower of Orthanc. With the moon and lots of stars. 

Mounted on the wall of art. 



He didn't know I was taking this picture - I was talking to him. 


Build a tower for Creation Nation (map of the United States on the floor). 


His tower, among the others. 

Flying creation - I think this was in the Star Wars area. 

Smaug was cool. 

He is cooler with a head. 

Bilbo and Gandalf were neat too. 


That's a lot of duplos (they had a simialr thing with regular bricks;
and another similar one with pinks/purples duplos)



I'd probably lose my head too - if I were a hobbit threatened by a dragon. 




watch what is coming. 

Wait for it.... 

it's coming.... 

almost there.... (see the lights?)

and he breathes fire. 

Bye Smaug.
(haha! Sherlock! Yeah!)
