Days To Remember G's Blog

Two of my children are often awake before me each morning. 

They merrily play in their room until I am ready to start the day.

One little one a lot of times comes and gets in bed with me in the morning and cuddles with her babies and me!

This morning Robin Hood bounced into my room, with hat and all.

Some busy hands were creating a hat this morning with a red feather.

Hezekiah, in my room says, "Look Mommy, I am Robin Hood." 

I looked but since I do not wear my contacts to sleep and my glasses were missing, I said, "Oh?  Really?" 

Hezekiah, "Yep, see my hat?"

Me, "No.....I do not have my glasses on."

Hezekiah gets my glasses for me and low and behold it is a Robin Hood hat. 
I certainly must have been smack dab in the middle of Sherwood Forest.

Hezekiah said, "Eli is Little John, but he is in the other room."

I thought it was absolutely adorable all taped to his little 8 year old head.

I love how my children pretend play.  They are so cute and I love the innocence. 

Oh, so sweet, play little one play and keep pretending.......that imagination is priceless! 

(We had read Robin Hood before Christmas break......and finally borrowed a copy of the Disney version from the library yesterday).

Here is a picture of some of the mini-land of LEGOES. 

Above is Times Square, which was neat to show the kids since we just finished The Cricket in Times Square.

All of the buildings and cars were made of LEGOES.  It was pretty amazing!

We shot at mummies in the Adventure land area.

Above is the Tech track........yep, I did think I was going to fall out of that one! 

Yesterday we went to LEGOLAND with our homeschool fellowship group. 

We only had to pay five dollars per person to go compared to their 65-75 dollar per person ticket. 

So it was a fabulous deal.  

We had a really cool time.  It is really unbelievable how they build all these cool creations with LEGOES.  

It is definitely geared for 2-12 year olds, so it fit our children's age group perfectly.

They enjoyed the flying school, traffic school, boating school, and rescue area.

They mostly enjoyed the roller coasters, especially the LEGO Tech track.  Of which I thought I was going to fall out of, crack me up!

Our favorite roller coaster was the Dragon over in the area with the cool Castle and jousting. 

I am thinking I want Christmas break to stay. 

It has been a wonderful "break."  And I like routine, but I have not missed it at all!

I think I am longing for Christmas to just keep going........if you know what I mean?

Also the generosity of Christmas........I would like for it to stay. 

This kind worker at Disney today just gave Maggie Beth this huge cookie.

Just gave it to her!  Just because he could! 

I like, no, I love this time of year.  I just want it to stay!
