Legoland or Bust

So it was the Little Lion's big day!  It fell on a Saturday which always makes it more fun.  Since we are so new to the area and this momma wasn't ready for the chaos of a b-day party, we opted for a day of fun - his choice!  

So Saturday found us on the road to the Atlanta area where we spent the morning at Legoland Discovery Center.

Learning how Legos are made.

That's how much he weighs in lego bricks!  I didn't try this one! ;o)

Little Lion had made the comment that my profile pic on facebook was of Little Pumpkin and I, was I ever going to put a pic of him and me on there.  We tried several times through out the day...but this was the best we got.  He was just not interested in standing still long enough for a pic!

Dreams coming true!  Building till his heart's content.  There were two "adventure" rides and lots of different stations where you created.  Here he is building a structure to stand the test of an earthquake.  Success.

They even had a great GIRLS area including karaoke, cupcake legos and LOTS of pink. 

This was her creation during the Master Builders Academy.  (forgot to get a pic of Little Lion's)  It's a "water park" with steps to a diving board, a fruit tree and a "regular" tree.

Birthday Boy's choice!  I promise I did not sway him!!!

This is the SPUD MAX for those of you unfortunate to not know about McAlister's!  The best spud in the world.  Side note only about 3/4 of the skin was left of this thing!!!!

Yummy cookies for dessert!

The evening was topped off with special calls from friends and even a Skype session!

PRESENT TIME! PRESENT TIME! OPEN THE PRESENT AND SEE WHAT'S INSIDE!

(can't say I miss Blue)

It was a team effort!

And I do mean the whole team!  ;o)

He was so excited about all his great gifts!  In fact as I type this it is 10:35PM and Daddy Lion and him are having an all night Wii fest...we'll see how long they last! lol

So special to have Grandma and Grandpa Myers here all the way from Oregon to celebrate with him!  

We never wait long to break into the Legos...this one was a family event!

Thank you to all who sent your sweet bday wishes to him throughout the day!  I had him read/ listen to every one of them.  We miss you all. 

Where have the last NINE years gone?
