Lego land 2009 It was July 9th 2009 my 8th birthday, and at the time my life was consumed by my obsession with Lego sets, even though I was known to rage when I couldn’t figure out a difficult part. We were visiting family in California and it just so happened that it was my birthday. And my parents surprised me with a day in Lego land. As we drive up to Lego Land, about every 500 feet there is a letter made out of Legos, W-E-L-C-O-M-E, it spells.

From the time that I was a toddler, I was always cheerfully asking my mother for “boy toys” because they allowed creativity to flow. Specifically I wanted the huge Star Wars Lego set of the Death Star because it contained millions of tiny and intricate pieces. Although I was never gifted the Death Star, in replacement my mother would buy me colorful sets that contained instructions for building Lego houses, or making a dog park. Over time, I gradually took all of these figurines that I had…
