Everything is Awesome!

We found out that Lego enthusiasts would be gathering in Santa Clara today to showcase their creations and since we have some Lego-lovers of our own, we made a quick trip to check it out!


We all enjoyed walking around the convention center to see all of the Lego creations.


Some of the displays were things the kids recognized immediately and it was fun to see them made of Legos...


Some were winners in our book because they used so many of the clear Legos...


And some were just amazing because of their size and detail and we cannot even fathom how long it took to create and how they were even able to be transported!


It was a really fun experience.  Before we left, I asked Ben what he liked best and in The Lego Movie-fashion, he replied, "everything is awesome!"


And though we wanted to hurry home to get back to Jason (and make sure Grandma was still standing), the kids enjoyed a sweet treat with Uncle Ross before our trip home.

The kids could not wait to get home to play with their newly acquired Lego minifigures.  We were excited to find Padme, Princess Leia and the Ninjago guys sold solo.  Now we don't have to buy the $400 Death Star!  Everything IS awesome!
