mom really wanted to do a castle and this was the first one i found for sale that was an actual castle shape and not just a building facade. although, lego does have a new one for sale coming out soon in august that i might pick up that’s more of the medieval castle style she wanted to build — lego neuschwanstein castle #21063 — but we haven’t really made much progress on this one lately

ooh this one was a good time and i really liked how it all came together. enough to hang up on my wall, as a matter of fact… unfortunately, this set was short a brick that went under other bricks so we had to wait a while for a replacement to get mailed in from denmark. lego is super cool that way though and is eager to fix any missing pieces!

got this one as a gift with purchase of some of the other sets i picked up, figured it would also be a nice little milky way project intermission. it was.

these two were pretty quick and we did them during intermissions of the next post (above this one) which was a nice little break from how detailed that one was. these were building up instead of specific placing on a grid idk they required different skillsets

mom had a couple strokes, so we figured we build some lego projects together to help with her dexterity. i had a good time so i picked up some other brick projects with lights and have been really enthralled with those too.
