Fun Friday stuff

I ordered the Woodland Mushroom Botanicals for the new Lego release on June 1st. I figured it was a good birthday gift for myself. 





It seems that my Sprite minifigure was absolutely delighted to find the set when I opened it. This is an 'adult' set which means it is a bit complicated. I figured it would be great for when the weather got so hot and beastly humid out. I could spend some time relaxing inside and enjoying cooler temps in the house.


Sprite shares her excitement with her good friend Lilith...


...who brings her magic star wand to help with the difficult parts.


I have to say that it is a beautiful set for display...
and to pose minifigs in.



Sprite seems to think that this should be her new permanent home. I agree, she looks perfectly happy amongst all the amazing fungi.


I'm just going with some things that make me happy. This week was horrible with heat, humidity, and bad weather so I busied myself when I wasn't staring out the window or sweating while mowing the yard...
and I did some distracting play....

I really really needed the distractions.

I'm just going to toss some shots in here for fun with no real explanation. Yesterday was my indoor day because of the non stop storms that were occurring.





My pick from the junk pile to do photography for Thursday.

    Sorry it's been so crappy outside. Love the LEGO flowers are super pretty. I'd love to get the old-timey typewriter someday.

      This morning it was bright and cool, so I'll take it! The dogs and I went for a early walk more than once to enjoy it.

    The set looks amazing! My cousin was hooked on LEGOs. She had hundreds of sets. Sadly, she passed away before many of the adult sets were marketed.

    There's something about other people's junk being someone else's treasure right? That's how I feel about yours. Love the new Lego additions too, and your creative photos. I hope your weather is kinder to you. Pretty hot and humid here right now and we've had our fair share of rain and two thunderstorms last night and the night before. Keeps me inside more than usual. Looking forward to your next fun scenes. I think we have old Lego sets in our basement somewhere. Our son used to enjoy them and I always had fun helping him put them together, maybe more than he did ;)
