Lincoln Logs: personal

Saturday morning I woke up at 7 and started to get ready to go, Alexis and I were heading out to this epic garage sale we heard about. Church parking lot. Tons of stuff. There was *bound* to be something fun there.

After having to park a mile away, I’m almost not kidding, we perused through the stuff trying to find something amazing. The last few times we went garage sale-ing we had a plan: Legit frames. But, having already crossed that off our list we didn’t really have any goals this time around. Alexis found a pretty cool cake stand and a tea kettle but I couldn’t find any cool photoshoot props so I distracted myself with Zoe. ;]

Then, as we were standing in line to pay I turned around and something amazing caught my eye. LINCOLN LOGS! I went over to see if they were wooden or plastic [yes, it matters] and how much they were. Wooden? Yes! Price: $15, not bad, but more than either of us were willing to pay. So I put them back, rejoined Alexis in line and we recalled how amazing Lincoln Logs were when we were kids… or teenagers ;] Then something amazing happened. Someone working at the sale overheard our conversation and decided to give us the logs for $5. YES!!

Jack invited me over after church yesterday to play with him. ♥

Jack’s favorite part of everything is destruction

Did you ever play with Lincoln Logs as a kid?

    Matthew has had that same set for years. They kids still play with them every now and then. Usually it’s when I decide “they never play with these, let’s declutter them” and they all say, “NOOOOOOO!” Then they go unplayed with again until the next time that happens…LOL
