Our "summer" vacation

Two years ago we went to Lego Land during the summer for a day with some friends. It was a fun trip but because of the crowds we didn't get to do and see everything we wanted. The kids have been asking to go back since then and this year we got to go. We decided to wait until AFTER Labor Day to go to avoid the crowds and we went at the perfect time. We arrived on Friday afternoon and got into the park around one. The park closes at 5 so in the 4 hours we were there we were able to walk around the entire park, go on 12 rides (most of them 2 or 3 times) and still have time to look at EVERYTHING. Saturday was a bit more busy, but we still had plenty of time to go back on our favorite rides as well as visit the water park and spend a few hours there going on water slides and playing in the pool. Here are some of the highlights of our trip:
We got to stay at the Lego Land Hotel!
Our room was Pirate-themed. The boys got their own area to sleep, their own TV and got to search the hotel for numbers to open the combination on the treasure chest in the room. Inside the treasure chest were some fun toys to bring home.

Lots of fun Lego characters and tons of things to play with and do at the hotel. 
They wanted to go see the Star Wars stuff first
This Star Wars ship took 5.2 million Legos to build!
The boys wanted to pose with everything



Logan wanted to touch and see everything made out of Legos. He wanted to get ideas so he could come home and start building.
They could not resist stopping and playing some Lego video games

Looks like you guys had a great time! I didn't know you were staying in the Legoland hotel. How cool is that?

Isn't it fun being a boys' mom?
