Under Construction

It is NOvember at the zoo.....

my kids were so excited for a full month of electronic free entertainment!



Totally kidding.





As they consumed their candy on Halloween night and enjoyed the ensuing sugar buzz, 
David broke the news that the following morning
 was the first day of 
NOvember.  

To which they responded with moans of
NOOOOOOOOO!

How appropriate is that?!





The primary form of entertainment this NOvember...
LEGO house construction

This one is Grace's house.




And here is Grant's house...






 Here's some of their handiwork...






He modeled this red dragon after one he is reading about 
in a book called Mysteries of Cove.

 

 Pretty good job. At least I thought so.


sea plane



dog bed


Every pet owner needs a Roomba to sweep up after their dog.
Here's Grant's Roomba...


Dining table and chairs


Sofa and reading lamp...





Jetboat....




Flat screen television wall...


piano...probably my favorite creation they've come up with...
oh, the gray thing in the lower right corner is a toilet...
I guess someone can serenade you on the piano
while you do your business



Illini!!!

computer desk...



And I've saved the best for last.

Grant made a deer.  A buck to be exact.
 

And this, folks, is the deer feeder used to feed corn to the deer.
Because when Shupes hunt, we absolutely bait the deer.
 
 Shhhhh.  Don't tell the game warden! 😆



I'm sure there's more LEGO building in our future.
Based on the size of the LEGO pile still on the floor.


And this, folks, is why I love
NOvember.

Have a good night!
