So when the Lego Holiday catalogue came out this season we noticed right away that they are starting a Winter Village Collection. And we knew, being the Lego fans that we are, that we would be replacing out cermaic set with one made of Lego bricks. So far there are only two building in the collection, the bakery and toy shop. They are both pretty cute and one set comes with a little outdoor skating rink and the other a community Christmas tree complete with lights and gifts. They also have a ton of mini-figures which is the big thing around our house, it's all about the 'mans'!
So I added the two sets to my already ridiculous bill at Lego.com and when they arrived we spent a weekend putting them together. They now reside in our front bay window and surprisingly the dog has not eaten any of it....yet! Both boys spend hours playing in the bay window with these sets and we have had to make a rule that the holiday sets do not leave the bay window, we can't chance them getting mixed in with everything else or we would never find them again!
I was coming home from walking the dog when I noticed Aaron and Kye in the window playing Lego in their jammies. It looked so cozy and warm and cute I had to run for my camera and snap a few shots of them from outside. I wasn't sure how the lighting would turn out but I was pleasantly surprised. I think this will make a nice new Christmas tradition.
P.S. Please don't judge me by my dirty windows the boys cannot keep their little paws off them!
