Lego Kids Fest came to Texas this past weekend. I scooped up tickets as soon as I heard about it. Sessions for all three days sold-out before the Texas sessions began. Boogs was so excited. A few years ago, The Mayborn Museum had a Lego exhibit that Boogs still talks about. Here are a few pictures of our Lego Fest fun:
 |
| There were so many amazing Lego sculptures! |
 |
| Boogs built his own car and then got to race it down the ramp. |
 |
| I should have gotten a better picture of the size of the pile of bricks behind Boogs. Boogs built a parking garage. |
 |
| If you look closely, you can see the chicken on the man's head and an egg splattered on his shoulder. |
 |
| I told Boogs he could spend $10 on Legos to take home. I assumed he would buy 3 mini figures. He found a slightly larger Alien Conquest set than the one in this picture. A salesperson told us they were 50% off, so that $30 set was $15. I told Boogs I would spot him an extra $5. There were a few other 50% off sets and the one in this picture was on sale for $10. Boogs said, "Momma, this one is $10 and I really like it and it is in my budget. So, I wanna get this one instead of the other one that is out of my budget." He is such a sweet boy. |
 |
| There were opportunities to build all sorts of creations. Sometimes it got a little bit crowded. |
 |
| Ninjago Battle! |
|
 |
| Boogs really liked this Ninjago! |
 |
| I
thought this was clever marketing by Bissell. Boogs thought it was fun
to vacuum the Lego pieces. The salesperson watched Boogs vacuum and
commented, "He is a very meticulous child, isn't he?" |
 |
| We spent a loooooooong time in the book store area. Boogs 'read' every page in this Star Wars Character Encyclopedia. |
Boogs let me know when he was ready to go home. He stood still for a minute, looked around and said, "I think I am on Lego overload. Can we leave now?" He almost fell asleep on the way home. Boogs and I had a great time. My husband was supposed to come with us, but he could not make it. He had a crazy week at work and also got another promotion. Work is going to keep him busy!
