Twist and Shout

Two weeks ago my brother got married.  I need to write a blog post about it, but that will have to come later.  For now, here is one of my favorite pictures.  The girls had a blast dancing.

More LEGOs!!

Another picture of LEGO Fest from Sean's phone because I love that they are all buried.

LEGO Fest!

This weekend we went to LEGO Fest.  It was so much fun, I don't even know where to start with the pictures.  Addie and Charlotte both agreed that their favorite part was the giant pile of LEGOs.  I was amazed at how loud it was.  Dozens of kids sifting through millions of LEGOs.

 Buried in LEGOS!


 There were lots of stations where kids (or adults) could build.  Emmy was in heaven.  When someone would leave their creation to go to a new station, I would give it to Emmy to tear apart.

 One activity was to make art with 1x1 blocks.  Charlotte made a rocket ship...
 Addie made the sun rising...
 Another activity was building cars and racing the down tracks.  We had fun experimenting with optimal race car configuration.  We decided that 4 wheels are better than 6; and the closer the wheels are together, the faster the car goes.
