The Art of the Brick

Right now at the Kimball Art Center in Park City is a super neat exhibit called "The Art of the Brick" by Nathan Sawaya. I am so glad my friend Jenny mentioned this exhibit to me, or I would of had no idea it was in town! Jake and I LOVE Lego products, so this art show was perfect for us! The event it free, and open to the public (ends April 21st), so if you live in Utah, try and stop by, or if you live somewhere else, see when the show is coming to visit you!! Pictures dont do the art justice! Its neater to see the pieces in person to get the full effect of the objects created! Jake and I have not played with our LEGOs for awhile, and after seeing this neat exhibit  I think its time to bust them out again! Jake and I really liked the castle story book, the aloha pencil and the mutli colored child's lego buns. Which pieces are you really liking from first glance?

LEGO- TMNT 79100

When I got an email from LEGO announcing the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles coming out, I was more than excited! I even called Jake at work to tell him the good news about the TMNT Lego. We were both so excited we had to go check them out when we were in CA at the LEGO store, and they were all sold out except for one set :( So...at Target they had all the sets! Go Target! This set was the cheapest at $12.99. I even think the set is cuter in person than in pictures! I cant wait to get the rest of the sets!

Fun little fact....my friend Jen always calls me Master Splinter. Any time she calls me on the phone she always repeats the scene from the movies about how the "4 baby turtles" got doused in ooze and found Master Splinter. She thinks since I have 4 baby turtles of my own, Master Splinter is very fitting for my name. I secretly LOVE IT :)

downtown disney afternoon :)

I love Downtown Disney! It is so awesome and a blast! Bryce loves Build a Bear, so I thought it would be fun for us to go there before we went to Disneyland last Friday. This is the best Build a Bear ever! It has 2 floors of stuffed animals to pick from and tons of outfits of all time. And tons of special disney outfits that are amazing! I want to get the Captain Hook outfit next time! It even comes with his handle bar mustache! I like all the Disney Villan outfits! They are super rad!

Bryce and I had fun making our Build a Bears! He made a fox, I made a dino...and we also made a little surprise for Jake! (Jake didnt get to come to CA so I thought he needed a treat!)

Look at the cool red box! It is for farm animals that just came out!

The LEGO Store finally reopened! Wahoo! It was under construction the last couple times I was in California, so it was awesome to see it opened! They made the coolest Disney LEGO scenes around and in the store!

They even had places for you to make cars and race them (for free) and play! So fun!

Upstairs in the LEGO store. I was bummed by the upstairs. It just a place to play, but I thought it would be cool to be a place to have LEGO classes or secret LEGO meetings. Maybe it is though...and I dont know about it because its a secret.

I dont know if I have ever been so excited for a LEGO set to come out as this one! Since I started dating Jake, I really started to LOVE StarWars even more than I did before. We saw a preview for this set, and knew we had to get it! It came out May 4th, and good thing I happened to be at the LEGO store that day! Since we got it the day it came out, we got a limited addition silver C3PO. Cool huh? I am a little nervous for 2127 pieces! This will be a big LEGO project!

Bryce picked out a couple cute things at the LEGO store to, and then we put our stuff back in the car...and took the monorail to DISNEYLAND! Wahoo! What a great evening Bryce and I were able to have!

Here are Bryce and I's finished Build A Bears! Bryce made a fox, and put him in a C3P0 outfit. He named his fox Timber.

I made a T-Rex dino and put her in an Ursula outfit. I thought she looked awesome. She really wears the Ursula hair do really well! I named her Tooth.

Bryce and I made Jake a Build A Bear for me to bring home to him! (He didn't get to come play in California with us.) We made him a pig in a matching C3PO outfit! He looks rad! The C3PO outfit is pretty cool! I like the pig to. Build A Bear just came out with Farm Animals and they are all so cute and extra soft!
