Legoland Review: 5 Must See Things

Hi Foxy People!

I'm finally doing that Legoland Review that I promised you a while back. I know took me long enough right? So here it is!

I think I will do the Do's in this post and save the Don'ts for another post.

ONE

Stay at the Legoland Hotel if you can! It's pretty amazing! They cater to  your every need.

Upon check in they give you and your kids a scavenger hunt. Fill in the numbers and it opens the treasure box in your room filled with some Legos for the kids to keep!

TWO

You don't really even have to stay at the hotel to do this, every night they have entertainment for the kids and a Lego building contest. Each month they have a them of what to build. When we went it was something that you love. The night we went they did about an hour of entertainement, and hour of the lego building contest and then another hour or so of a magic show.

This is where the entertainment happens. The moat around the boat is filled with Legos to build your creations.

Where I am taking the picture above from is a lounge/bar area for the parents to hang out and watch their kids play, win-win for everyone.

Magic show time - This time Baby Fox got picked to help with the magic show, he was so excited!

THREE

If you stay at the hotel you get into the park 30 minutes before everyone else. Hit up the rides with the longest lines like Lost Kingdom Adventure (it's a shooting target game).

 That is my kids favorite ride/game there and the lines there tend to get long.

FOUR

There are several places to build things like at the Build and Test where you make race cars and race them against other people.

Or build a raft, especially on those hot days, this will come in handy to get a little wet.

FIVE

You have to let your kids run around at The Hidaways. There is only one way in and one way out, so they can't wonder off, it gives you a small break and they LOVE it in there! Plus they get tired and blow off some steam.

So there you have it, the 5 must see things to do according to my kids. I would like to say that an Honorable mention is the big slides. My kids LOVE that thing.

If you've ever been to LEGOLAND what is your must have or must do? Sound off below for people planning a trip!

Come back next week for my 5 Don't bother things.

Weekend Recap

Weekend 2 without the Mr. over! We survived the weekend, and everyone is still alive, win.

Friday we went to the mall to get some Cheesecake Factory for dinner, and of course I left my phone and camera at home, so no pictures. We did dinner, went to the playground and had fun. And then we came home I put the kids to bed and then made 16 dozen cookies. If you're wondering they look like this:

Saturday morning was fairly lazy. Baby Fox is up on the bed and Mini Fox wanted to watch tv on the floor.

Breakfast of eggs and peaches

After breakfast we headed off to a new park to meet up with some friends. It was actually a really cool park, then entire thing was in shade, win in my book, definitely be back in the summer.


This was the popular thing to do at the park, they kept coming back to this one, it spun, what's better than this?

And this, how many kids can fit on the seesaw?

Afterwards we hit up the grocery store, this girl wanted to be worn and he wanted in the cart instead of walking around so it worked out. They wanted to hold hands the entire time, super cute and I worked on my side walking at the same time.

And then we took some selfies

Silly girl

Of course it's late and the kids need lunch so we stopped at our favorite place...can anyone guess?

Waiting for our food

Usually we wait till we get home to eat, but since home was 20 minutes away, I made an exception to the rule of eating in the car and each one of them got their own box, she only got fries in her box and she thought it was the the coolest thing ever.

Back home to finish up naps and then we had some friends over. These three are just the best. I love them so much. The reason why they're standing here... they wanted to know who was taller.

Sunday was a birthday party at a fun kids museum. The food was endless.

The kids had a blast and asked me when we can go back.

Happy Birthday little ones!

After naps we headed over to my parents for dinner. Always a great way to end the weekend.

How was your weekend?

Friday Favorites #57

In case you missed it, this week I wrote about this:

Monday: Legoland and Valentine's Day Weekend Recap

Tuesday: Show and Tell: Pinterest Project I completed

Wednesday: Hair Challenge Week Recap

Thursday: $10 Target Haul

Last week Katie from The Mishaps and Mayhem of a Solitary Life had asked her students what they thought love was. Click here for that funny yet true post. I decided to ask Baby Fox what he thought Love was. Here's our conversation:

Me: Baby Fox finish this sentence - Love Is...now fill in the blank.

Baby Fox: Love is a Mini Fox

Me: What does that Mean?

Baby Fox: I love my sister.

I died, they are so cute.

Loving Jasmine and all her covers. She's so talented, has a different raspy voice, unique to her and totally works!

Guess who got cleared to go back to the gym?!!! Me after my PT appointment, hair all gross, but I got to run and got the OK to go back to my classes and start running again! And I'm only having to go to PT every 2ish weeks, woo hoo!

Going back to the gym, means that this guy got to go rock climbing. At our gym you have to be 5 and since he turned 5 while I was on medical leave, the first chance he got we went...that was last night. He lasted 1.5 hours of rocking climbing, rock star!

First time on the ropes

After I was done working out, I went to get Mini Fox and we went to watch, this is where he was on the wall when we got there.

And this is how high he got! You can see Mr. way down there in the bottom right corner. Crazy right?

Of course I got a little video footage

I almost melted when I got these pictures, she's so darn cute! 

Did you see those jams up there? Look familiar?

That's all I have, going to be a busy weekend, I told a friend I would make 60+ of my homemade Oreo Cookies, so I'll be baking up a storm and we have lots of plans with friends. Perfect for Mr. being gone for a few days, keeping us busy!

What you doing? Anything you're looking forward to?
