the trading posts at legoland

As Elliot pointed out, it was definitely a stretch for the theme, however, we went to the Trading Posts at Legoland and traded our mini-figures.

by Elliot:

The main part we went there was because Nana bought us each a mini figure to trade. Just about all the employees have another mini fig. On their shirt so we could go on rides and then trade if we had one. I traded 7 times witch was the most, and i ended up with a sheriff with a hat, gun and tiny legs.

shoes and arrowheads

Moccasins were an essential for all Indians at the Birdhouse and we stitched our own!

Later an arrowhead collector came to the house to share his collection and his knowledge about the Indians that lived in our part of Florida.

The kids each got to choose their own arrowhead to keep!

The main business of today was a water balloon fight.

Once the sun went down, we had fun with glow sticks and sparklers. The neighborhood put on quite an (illegal) show. But we enjoyed it all!

 

Well, some of us did anyway...
