Advent dreamin'

This is really cool!!
Ya'll know I've been thinking of advents.
This is the last year youngest will desire a set like this.

I sure wish there was a StarWars set of these. 
But, he loves the knights & castles right now too.



Lego Castle Set #7979 Advent Calendar, $79.99

OUCH!!

24  little sets inside the box so that each day there is something to build.


$149.00...that is sooooo much $$$.
You must end up with a whole Christmas town in this set.


Littlest Pet Shop Advent Calendar, $34.99
This would have been fun when he was into these guys with our neighbor, his best buddy.



I think it would be so much fun for him to have a little piece to work on each day in December to set the whole scene up on his lego table.  I might have to splurge because this would delight his precious heart.

Happy Blue Monday with Smiling Sally

Edit:
I did it...folks.  I'm a sucker for my youngest!
I ordered the Castle set for him.
It was the only 1 available and apparently is gonna be rare in the U.S.
He will be beyond the moon thrilled.
His b-day is in Jan so it is always fun to do it up for him in Dec & Jan.

  1. Awwwww......I predict you will splurge! It's Christmas, after all, and it sounds like he is at the age where it's so much fun to do these things.

    If you divide it out by each day he'll have an activity to do, it's not THAT expensive. It'll be his own little village!

  2. I sure miss the days when we surprised our little boys with gifts like that! It is pricey, isn't it? But you know, I agree with Tammy above, it would give him something to make every day. Is layaway possible?

    Blessings,
