Legos For A Good Cause

Last Summer Taj was happily employed building and collecting all things Lego. The goal was to create a dream Lego Christmas.... for someone else. We tried to help Taj understand that it was for a good cause. It was being donated to The Festival of Trees which then auctions it off for the Primary Children's Hospital. This made Taj excited and proud. He did mention that he wished he got to keep the Lego's a couple times, which means this really was a dream "tree".

We aren't in Utah for the final product, but Nana was kind enough to send us some of these pictures. Tonight was the auction and Larry H. Miller's widowed wife won it for $5025.00! Way to go Taj!

*a little tidbit for memories: Micah stayed up several nights working on a backdrop for the Lego Christmas scene. It was 3 huge panels with 3 D art of Lego guys sledding and playing in a snowy Lego village. The night before we left Utah Micah sliced his finger open while working on it and ended up in ER with I think 13 stitches. And they weren't even allowed to use the backdrop after all. That's something Mrs. Miller will never know.
