LEGO FEST 2014

We saw an advertisement for Lego-fest just after Christmas and knew that we wanted tickets :)
It was the first time that the event was going to be in Canada, and it was going to be in Calgary, so close!
So we called up the cousins and ordered some tickets, and a super fun time was had by all ;)
A little Pre- Lego picture.....it was the beginning of Alex LOATHING my camera ;)
Making some memories :)

 First stop....giant pile of Lego bricks!
Mack was pretty pumped :)
he literally dove right in!


 showing me the robot that he created :)
 Alex getting in on the "building" action
Corbyn wasn't feeling too hot, so he sat out for a little bit with Bampi
They had SUCH super cool thing built all over the place :)
 The stars from the Lego movie were there!  Nobody from our crew cared :)
 He literally could have stayed and played ALL day
 The "build a race car" station




 Stopping for some healthy snacks and planning our next few stops :)
 Lego city!
All the kids got to build a super tall "building" and help create a city.

 We made it to the "Hero Factory"
I had NO idea what this was...but they were super pumped.
 Look at ALL THAT LEGO!


 Mack's guy he created.  This was the best part (in my opinion) of Lego Fest, at every section anything that kids created could be set aside and "saved" so that when they moved on to a new section their creation wasn't taken apart right away.
 Train section!
 Had to take a closer look with Uncle Bob's flashlight
 Eek!  How far will my hand fit!

 Planning out our next few stops
 Lining up for the "Building Challenge!"
Not going to lie, totally jumped the line so that Mack could go building with his Dad and his cousins :) 
 Lego Building Challenge!!!
 It was a timed event, they had to create the best rocket they could in 3 minutes 
 Putting the finishing touches on their creation
 The presentation of their rocket!
 Pretty proud

 Putting all the pieces back for the next players
 Checking out some creations that other people had made throughout the day

 Chima section!

 We REALLY liked this one!

 Mack hanging out with someone not in his family

 Pretty. Darn. Cool.
