Ladies and gentlemen the new country house on the land where the first house was and shinglesville. It has a kitchen big enough to make feast, 3 bath / 4 bath, a sitting room with a nice hot fire, an organ and some men observing the human skeleton. Its nice but it is probably hard to find since its in the middle of nowhere.
I found you on Jami Nato's blog. Are these kits or your own creations? We don't look at Legos often now. My boys are grown, but we all still love Legos. Our son who is 5 1/2 years younger than the older one refused to play with Duplos when he was tiny, becasue he wanted to play with Legos like his older brother did.
i think that only 2 kits stayed intact - a car (maybe) and the Millinemium Falcon. My husband had talked about gettig that one for them for Christmas some year. After the older one was out of college and living on the coast and the younger one was in college not too far from home, they bought it for him. They set it up on a long table and spent most of Christmas break putting it together - alone, with each other, or with their friends who came to visit. Most of the boys' friends were engineers or engineering students or at least Lego fans, and all loved working on it. The younger one had to finish it, as it took longer than from Christmas Day until the older one left.
It's living at his house now, as we're not sure we want to ship it unless we glue it together and the older one really doesn't have room for it in his small NYC apartment.
We decided that if we ever get another one that size, we'll start it as soon as the older one gets home in order to have more time. My husband is considering getting them something big but much smaller than the MF this year. I can't wait.
Hi Lee! My son is the one who writes on this blog and these are all his creations. He has kits, but after he builds the kit he then likes to take them apart and then create his own models. I love that your boys still enjoyed building Legos even in college! I wouldn't mind tackling those big models myself! :)
