I LOVE legos! It may be the single greatest toy created. My kids will disappear for hours to play with their uncle's hand-me-down legos. These are a few of Jesse's creations. He really wanted me to take some pictures of them...as I type he is downstairs searching for his "pirate captain" to create something new. 

I loved playing with legos when I was a kid too, though I never had any. I had to wait until we saw our cousins and play with theirs. Once when we were visiting someone combined both of their individual sets into one (a big no-no!). Since I had been playing with them everyone assumed I had done the dastardly deed. What started as "Did you combine the legos?" turned into the third degree. Okay, so I'm exaggerating a bit ;0) When you're marched into a room and asked over and over again if you did it and then told you can't play with them anymore, its pretty obvious that nobody believes you. That was a doubly crushing blow...no matter how hard I claimed innocence nobody believed me, AND I couldn't play with the legos the rest of our time there. The one thing that has haunted me is this: WHO mixed the legos and let me take the blame for it? Anyone care to fess up? = )
P.S. I'm not bitter about this...I'm laughing as I type it. I wouldn't want someone to think I was mad = )

your memories cracked me up... and to think a relative would let you take the fall??? crushing indeed!
we ♥ the legos here too. well technically I guess we have duplos... I can't convince myself to make the switch to the littler ones. Its fun to watch the creativity flow...
I don't remember such a thing. I was never into them. I'm just not creative.
