Esther & The Whale, Lego dragons & lists
How do you move Lego creations without destroying them? We just don’t have room to carry them in the van (7 kids, 2 dogs, the cat… 5 boys worth of Lego creations would be a bit much) and I know the movers can’t be concerned with helping maintain super fierce Lego dragon status while packing the boys stuff.
And, Whale, Gabe’s fish. He’s really getting ginormous and Ryan and I aren’t quite sure how to transfer him safety. He’ll be displaced for at least 4 days, maybe up to 2 weeks.
I think Esther will be fine. She’s a sweet, friendly Gecko who will make the trip in a box and be no worse for the ware.
In a box we’ll take with us in the van. Just to clarify.
There are so many decisions to make. So much to remember. So much stuff I really don’t want to take with me. Things I’d like to just give away and never look at again.
I’ve gotta go make a list or three.

Hey Mel! Taylor- our resident Lego king- says to take pictures of each one, then take them apart in sections and put them in baggies with the picture in it. (Or the directions, if they keep those- which Taylor does.) That way they will stay separate and they can reassemble them when they are moved in, and the picture will help with a visual of what the creation is supposed to look like. He doesn’t think it’s possible to pack them without breaking them, but you could try small individual boxes with lots of packing…
Taylor is 17 and Wes is 14 1/2, and they still get out their Legos sometimes! Boys are awesome.
I can’t believe it’s time for you to move already!
