Okay - so is it sad that I'm probably as excited as our little guys?!

Legos opened a store here in the Dallas area. My boys are obsessed with Lego, and are gonna be so incredibly surprised. We're not telling them where we are going, just gonna surprise them when we walk up to the store. But I think I'm almost as excited about it as they are! LOL
 
Oh like I needed another reason to drive the 2 hours down there! DS has just started to play with Legos and loves them!

Does the store have a "play area"? We may be having to make a day trip or two this summer!
 
I'll let you know when we get back. From what I saw in the store promo, it is really just a store, and not a play place like the one @ Mall of America, but we'll see for sure when we get there.
 
All of my boys, including DH would be so excited! We subscribe to the free Lego Club magazine and I have to read every word of it to them TWICE. LOL!

Have fun!!! Let me know if it's a play place one. Dallas is only about 8 hours from here. ;)
 
Oh, you lucky-duck! Ours closed a few years ago. It was so fun to go there! I wish I could see the look on their faces when they see it!
 
If you ever make it to Orlando in the future go to downtown Disney they have a lego store there with a play area and a huge dragon in the lake as well robots I think and a "tourist on a bench" made completely out of legos.
 
Our Legos store opens this summer...we'll definitely be checking it out. Their birthday party packages sounds pretty neat, but LOL, we don't have enough people to invite so we'll be passing on that for awhile!
 
Well - holy cow. It was a madhouse. We had to wait in line for an hour to get in, then had to crush through the crowd that they did allow inside to try to shop, then wait in line for another 45 min or so to pay!! It was just a madhouse.

But the boys were in love and spent the next 3 months of their allowance today LOL. They got to help build a gigantic R2D2 with the Lego Brickmaster (funny thing is, they said it will only be in the store about a week, then taken down and all the parts shipped to the next 'event'). The store itself is fairly small, like a smallish trendy shoestore or candy store in a mall. But they have a lot of the catalog kits you can't get in the toy stores/Walmart/Target, and they have little knick knack things, plus the Lego backwall for individual pieces by the cupsize. The boys were in heaven, though, and that's what mattered! I couldn't even take photos of them inside the store because it was absolutely crazy! We did get pics of them with the R2D2, etc., as that was done down in a common area of the mall.
 
I'm still a Lego freak, lol. There's an amazing exhibit at our Science World going on right now.

Lego stores, even the small ones, are such a fun experience. So many unique things you just won't find anywhere else except online, and there's just something about all that Lego in one place that is wayyy too exciting. When I took my nephew along on an overnight visit to my friends in Kirkland, WA, I didn't say anything to him except that we'd do a bit of shopping at a mall I really liked. When we rounded the corner in the Bellevue Square Mall and he saw the Lego store... PRICELESS!
 
lol that's great Darcy. It's funny you mention this...my 17 year old ds who is about to graduate from high school went to a yard sale this weekend and bought a HUGE rubbermaid container full of legs and has had a blast making stuff just like a little kid all weekend :O)
