Lego Explosion

We have a huge bucket of Lego's that have been collected over the past 12 years.

Zach, who is now 17, started the collection when he was 5 and his siblings have been adding to it ever since.

Paige loved playing with the big duplo blocks but had been asking to play with the big bucket of little Lego's for some time. I gave it to her and she quickly started digging through it looking for pieces.

She really liked all the little star wars figures that had been collected over the years.

Both Samantha and Garrett decided to help her sort through all the pieces and organize them a little.

We found some really fun stuff. I got on eBay to see how much some of these sets were selling for. I was shocked at how much you could get for one little star wars guy.

I don't have the heart to sell any of it though.

After all, we need Chewbacca to watch over the Star Wars fairy princess castle.

It just wouldn't be the same without him.

At 7:12 PM, Brenda said...: Ha! I love it! You better hang on to all those. When you get your "new" kiddos they are going to love them!!!!

And don't think I haven't scoured e-bay for prices on some of the toys my mom has kept over the years! We are sitting on a landmine! But, the kids love playing with them....:)
At 4:41 PM, Kristin said...: Ha -- that looks like our playroom every day -- Lego-mania! (And I know what you mean about how valuable they are, I had to buy a few choice Star Wars Legos on ebay for Christmas -- ouch!)

Words To Live By

"Sons are a heritage from the Lord, children a reward from him. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them."
~Psalm 127
"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
James 1:27
