Lego Convention

I took the kids to a Lego convention last Sunday, where we saw a lot of great builds and where I was coaxed into buying them each a mini-figure whose heads/arms/legs/body will soon be put to use in their 'franken-figure' factory (except for Katharine, who actually keeps her Legos intact).

But creativity can be expressed in many ways, and this show had it's share of interesting mixing and matching going on.

Here are the kids, posed in front of their favorite exhibits.

Lennon loved the wall of mini-figures.

Lego Friends for Keira (yep, their blatant and somewhat sexist market grab for young girls worked on her).

Lukas loved this castle, mainly because Indiana Jones was scaling it.

Katharine dug this amazingly lush rendition of the Shire.

The huge beach landing build was my favorite.
