Whenever J earns 15 star stickers he usually gets to choose a toy from the store. Usually it is a hot wheels car, or a small Lego set. We went to toys-r-us to look for his toy and we found this on the 75% off clearence table: Lego Creator Roaring Roadsters 4896! The only downside was that is was super hard to put together. It took dad 4 hours to do....J got so sleepy he had to go to bed before it was finished.


This is soooooo cool! This is seriously the coolest Lego set we have put together! EVERYTHING in the car works! It has adjustable seats, adjustable headrests, the peadals move, the shifter moves, the emergency break moves, it has working rack and pinion stearing, the hood opens, the trunk opens, the sideview mirrors adjust, the doors open. J has been fascinated by this all day (Dad and Mom too)! A lego set has never remained assembled this long before. And there are instructions for making two other vehicles from the same set.
Also today we went to another workshop at lowes and he made a periscope!
And mom spent hours downloading updates to windows XP so she could get Microsoft Movie Maker 2.1 installed (free) on the computer. This is a super easy to use and fun software for making movies with your digital camera!

The lego car is cool! We went to the Lowe's workshop, too. We had to run some errands and went to the one in town here.
