LegoLand !*!*!*

Like I mentioned in the previous post......we had time to kill between the Aquarium and LegoLand.......which was agonizing for the kids!! They just wanted to get into LegoLand as fast as possible!! There was a Rainforest Cafe in the mall, so I took the kids to the shop while Wendy and Shana shopped nearby. We grabbed a few pictures...
I can't even begin to tell you how excited Evan was from the moment we told him we were going to LegoLand........and yes, I'm talking months before the trip!! He was looking forward to this sooooo much. I think these next few pictures pretty much sum up the excitement all three kids had!!
Quick building area while we waited on the 'factory' door to open!!
We 'made' our own Lego!!
These were jumbo sized Lego's made of rubber that the kids could build with!! We saw some bigger kids building walls then jumping into them and taking them down!! :}
They had Construction equipment.....all made of Lego's (normal sized Lego's!)
Ella was in heaven!! She's up there on the karaoke stage belting out some tunes!! I just prayed she wouldn't sing her favorite song......'I've got my toes in the water, *** in the sand!!' :}
Now this was our (the adult's) favorite!! These skylines were built from Lego's......thousands (probably millions) of Lego's!!

This is Dallas' skyline.......
then the lights in the room dimmed and the buildings lit up!!! It was insane!! And that construction crane.......it was operable!!
This is downtown Grapevine (where we stayed)......I personally loved the motorcycles parked along the street!! The attention to detail was crazy!! Street lamps lit up too.
The Great Wolf Lodge in Grapevine!! There was much more too.....just didn't take a picture of Everything! There was an airport, the Cowboys Stadium.....equipped with moving football players!! It was wicked!!
Ella Loved the giraffe's too!!
There was even a small one just perfect for Autumn!!
And a puppy!!
I can't remember who this basketball player was, but Joe and Frank thought it was pretty cool that he was full size.......yes, made of Lego's!! And the trophy too!!
hahaha......
In the store afterwards........the color wall.......
too cool!!
We all loved LegoLand very much.......and we spent quite a few hours wondering and playing in here!! The kids both got to buy a Lego when we left.......Evan added a few to his Cars collection, and Ella started her collection of Lego Friends!! Good Times!!
