Legoland - New York

-
This past year a brand new Legoland opened up in Upstate New York. It was not something that was really on our radar. We have done a Legoland in Florida when the kids were really young and even then we weren't that impressed. I mean sure it's cool that everything is made out of Legos and the Miniland is definitely wow worthy but the rides are just meh, especially for older kids. 

H was only one when we last went so he complained that it was not fair since he was too young to remember.. and he really is a LEGO lover.. so we thought okay.

And then as if it was meant to be.. T-Mobile was offering 50% off tickets.. that just sealed the deal.

The brand new Legoland is in Goshen, New York. They have a hotel on premises as well. 


Here we are in Florida, 2015. D was five and H a wee little one. You can read more about our trip here


It was a nice sprawling space, masks required in all indoor spaces.. we didn't eat there so can't comment on the food. The rides and activities were geared towards a younger crowd nonetheless it was a well spent day. 







The Miniland really is my favorite.

Your son should be a lawyer he had an excellent argument for going :) Looks like fun! I have ALL of my son's legos up in the attic and there is a TON. Hopefully when he has a home with a basement he will cart all of it there.

Sounds like a fun place to visit, Hena! I'm sure the kids enjoyed it enormously. I guess I would have been quite enamoured with Miniland too! xxx

Legoland looks so fun for the kids. My son would have loved this at their age, as he used to play with Legos all the time and make creative things.
I like the rides they are going on in the shape of Legos. Those are cute pictures of your sons with the animals' mouths wide open. Sounds like you had a great time.

ps.....Oh my, the squirrels come sit on your deck and watch you eat breakfast!! They get pretty close to my neighbor also, but I try to shooo them away all the time. They keep coming in my front yard and scurrying up and down the tree and looking for pine nuts on the ground. ; )

Glad you had a good day. At least it wasn't a long trek for you. There's a Legoland in San Diego, but I've never been.

What a beautiful autumn trip Dear friend! We watched "The Lego" movie in the cinema. But, according to photos you shared in this post. You played as an actor in Lego play-garden there. Thanks for the review,

I bet they had a blast, didn't know they had a Legoland New York. We went with our kids when the first US one opened in California many years ago, my kids enjoyed so much. They are adults now

That Miniland is so awesome! When we were in Florida, we did want to go to Legoland but ran out of time. This one in NY looks awesome though:)

Now that's a good deal. It's incredible what they can create out of legos, isn't it?

How the kiddles doth change and grow. I have millions and billions and trillions of Legos because my children loved them. I am not yet able to part with them.

My son was pretty obsessed with Legos when he was around your boy's ages. We always meant to take him to the Legoland in Florida but always ended up getting distracted by the bigger theme parks and running out of time. It definitely looks like a fun time for younger kids.

I wish this Legoland was here when my children were young as they would have loved it! It would be nice if they had a few more rides for older children but the displays are fascinating for all ages. So much work goes into making them.

Oh wow! it looks incredible! I've never been to a Legoland. We have a Legoland area in the Mall of America near where I live, but nothing this extravagant of course.

It looks like a lot of fun! I wish that we had a Legoland in Australia, the kids would love it, they are Lego mad!

Hope that you are having a wonderful weekend :) We are enjoying our long weekend. A beach day, playdate, carnival and a lot of time in the playground!

I like the spider webs on your front lawn and the pumpkins on your porch. And that cake roll looks amazing. I want a piece with my coffee right now. It was nice for you to show us what your son did with the white pumpkin he got. It DOES Look a bit sweet. The dirt cup is a creative idea as well. And your husband is busy in the kitchen joining in on the fun. Oh, how I remember all those Halloween's when the little ones went trick-or-treating.

I had to see this Legoland in New York once again. It is so cool. Would be great for a kid to visit there.

I hope November brings you many pleasant surprises. ; )

Kitchen and Family Room: New Flooring

When the wall between our family room and kitchen see details here came down we had to deal with two different flooring, old carpet and newish laminate. The plan was to find the same laminate.. we found the box in the basement, how hard could it be? Harder than we thought.. that particular one had been discontinued.. and finding something similar was not an easy task..  Finding a flooring that was kind of close but not close enough would seem like a mistake.. so we decided to go different, this way it would seem like an intentional design choice.. I had always wanted a chocolaty dark floor.. The next thing to take into consideration was the transition between the two floors.. generally what is used it a T- Moulding, that strip you see in the above picture connecting the two floors together. Not the prettiest option. Pinterest to the rescue..  Adding tile to the mix would help to blend the two different brown together and there would be no awkward bump in t...

D's Amazing Race Party

Last weekend our eldest turned 9.. and we threw him an amazing race birthday party! As with all the boys other parties.. I bought a plain white cake from Wegmans and let D decorate it himself. We had a total of nine kids.. they picked bandanna's out of a bag to create 3 teams. First Task Not all the kids knew each other.. they were too amped up with the idea of winning that they couldn't manage to calm down and read the clue.. so we had to really guide them through it.. they made mistakes and we let it go.. it seemed a tad chaotic..  Second Task I had 33 little medicine cups filled with M&M's and Goldfish crackers.. 6 of them had stickers on the bottom. The first two teams found the sticker in the first try... what are the odds!? And the third team had to eat a lot of snacks before they finally found their sticker. Third Task I bought 48 piece puzzles from the Dollar Tree. The boys took their time making ...
