So one of my favorite childhood memories is making Lego houses with my brothers and sisters. We would gather every piece of Lego that we had and create a mansion! We would have surveillance cameras, big screen tv's in every room, swivel chairs, gourmet kitchens, etc. They were pretty awesome!
Well today I made my first Lego house with my boys! We didn't have near as many pieces, and they were the larger Legos, but I think we did pretty good with what we had...A cute little house that any little Lego guy would be proud to have!
Come, take a tour!

This is Luigi (because my kids are obsessed with Super Mario Bros right now), standing at the threshold of his new home.

I hope this creates the lifelong memories of Lego building that I have...I'm sure this is the first of many houses we will build together, and they will only get better with time! (And more Legos!)
