Celebration continues part 2

The celebration of Noah's birthday continued, so there is no need to feel sorry for Noah's slightly abbreviate birthday. On Wednesday, after his music lesson, we went to the Lego store so that he could redeem his coupon for a Lego set. After much observation, and discussions, weighing the benefits of this one versus that one, consulting with his brother, making yet another round in the store to make sure he had found THE BEST one, Noah settled on a large Technic set. He pooled his birthday money from Grammy and Uncle Joel, and added in some of his own savings and out he walked with a HUMONGOUS bag. His joy was only slightly dampened by Mamma's aim for efficiency which meant making a few stops on our way home - he could not wait to rip open the box and set out to build.
Lukas generously assisted by sorting pieces and the large vehicle was operational before Dad made it home for dinner, despite all those pesky stops.
