LEGOLAND!!!

 Last Saturday, we went to Legoland in Carlsbad, CA.  It was SO exciting for us to finally reach this place, because Zach, especially, just loves to play them.  He has always played with them.  It fuels a creative vibe in his mind, that no other toy can fulfill.  Now, Parker is also playing with them, and even the girls enjoy them!  In fact, after our trip here, the girls mentioned how they would like to start playing with Legos more!  (hint....hint..... they have girlie colors, Grandparents! :)

 This park, to me, is half-amusement park, half-museum!  It was just mind boggling to see so many different objects made COMPLETELY out of legos!  An elephant that shoots out water!


A Volvo!!

Indiana Jones!  Harrison Ford, eat your heart out!  :)

 But Legoland had other things for the kids, like this HUGE play center, with slides and ladders galore!

 They also have a room where the kids could build their own race cars, and have races.  Parker LOVED it! He kept racing his car, and winning!  (I think Daddy had something to do with it)  :)

There is an amazing section of the park where popular locations are 'rebuilt!'
New York.....

 The White House.....

Our nation's Capitol....

Mount Rushmore....

 The Golden Gate Bridge.....

And then, there is the Star Wars section......

 Me. Oh. My.....

 If you could have seen my kids, running from one scene to the other, yelling, "Look!  Wow!"

 They were recalling the scenes and characters.......

 Too cool....

 Of course, they had to fight Darth Vader.  :)

Except for his cape, the entire structure is out of LEGOS!

 Life-sized!

 Tanner was trying to converse with Shakespeare......I am not sure how well that went!  :)

One of our most favorite Presidents, Abraham Lincoln.....

 Elvis!!!  Thank you.  Thank you very much.......

 But, it was the rides at Legoland, that brought on the most laughs and smiles from the Golden Gang!

 Come on Emily!  You can do it!!


Whoo Hoo!!!!  This ride was AWESOME!!!  We all had such a blast!
