Final pieces being added.

Ezri is holding the completed LEGO present that opens to reveal a small living room with a Christmas tree, toy train, dad with coffee mug, and stocking hang over the fireplace.

The way Amanda and Ivan put the sign initially.

Ivan’s modifications.

Of the photos we took, this is Ivan’s favorite. I like the one where you can’t see my face and the sign is lit up.

Ivan is so proud of the erector set car he was gifted for Hanukkah and built with Eric.
He loves the small metal tools that came with it. And has been tinkering with it since the build.

Fighting stance, ready. . .

and GO!
