LEGOLAND Discovery Center

Our first big outing on the agenda was Karter's pick of the LEGOLAND Discovery Center in Grapevine. Brad was just as excited as Karter. :) We were not disappointed! There was so much for them to explore and everyone loved it.


There was a little mini city of Dallas made of all Legos of course. It was amazing to see. There were even little area's where you could move some of it around. The boys loved the construction crane. Then we headed over to check out some fun 3D movies...Makin and I only lasted through one as they sprayed water on us and he was not a fan of that...however I am so glad I got to snap one priceless picture of Auntie Di (who met us there) and her lovely head-gear as she was prepared for the downpour during the show. :) And she thought sitting in the back would keep people from seeing her. ;)



The biggest hit with my kids were the cars. First you built you car, then you tested it out on one of their many race tracks. They loved racing their cars again and again. This seemed to be Brad's favorite as well as he liked to see how to make the cars go faster.



There were also giant Legos in one area. Hannah and Brad built a huge tower.

















There was also one ride that Hannah and Karter loved. Of course trying to take pictures of it you only get the front and back of the people you are trying to catch riding it. It was quite the challenge as you had to pedal like a bike and we were wearing flip flops! Thankfully Auntie Di and Sarah took turns as well!


We topped out day off with lunch at Rainforest Cafe before heading home. Such a fun-filled day!

And the fun didn't end as the older kids continued to work hard for days after on Karter purchase of a HUGE pirate ship. They both worked soooo hard on it!
