We're Taking a....

You have heard of taking a sick day, a mental health day, but today, we are taking a Lego day. Recently, we had a friend bring us an extreme amount of legos that her son decided to give up. When I say extreme, this kid was a lego enthusiast. We received a plastic bin, a box, a bag of legos and even a homemade Lego table. Wow. The kids went ballistic...so many legos in one place and we weren't even at the Lego store:)

The next day, we woke up to a rainy, yucky day. It was dreary and dark. We had school to do but we decided to take a Lego day. One day where the kids could just explore and play with their new treasures. A day to be free but I am sure I snuck in some chapter book reading while they were playing:) Every now and then, you need to take a day....a day not related to school to just be free. We are enjoying our day, playing Legos. Hope you enjoy your day:) See you soon.

Kaleb found some treasures in the Lego box....Star Wars.

J working intently on her creations.

She made a house complete with furniture and art work.

Riley was not to be outdone. He had to play too. He experimented with the Lego table. Thanks Liz and Matthew! They will definitely be played with (and stepped on).
