I finished my December Daily 2010 last weekend - hooray! It's definitely a project that is a labour of love.

Happy Birthday Jeff! This is a little lego scene (naturally) of Jeff - Daddy, Matthew and Callum for the front of Jeff's birthday card. It was Callum's idea for little lego Callum and Matthew to hug lego Daddy - how sweet! Read more →

If October was all about knights, then November is all about pirates. For that's Matthew's school topic this half-term, and of course there's always a lego project involved in his topic home learning. This time he wanted to make a pirate story with lego scene pictures and writing. The first week he introduced the ten main characters which included Captain... Read more →
