I was never terribly creative with them on account of being too young to understand basic building structures enough to build the cool things I had in my head, but I still tried. It was always my dream to try to put every single lego piece in that tub together into some big nonsensical thing, but there were too many legos for my short attention span.

Nobody plays with them anymore, but I think my dad still has them in the garage somewhere.
I saw the Lego movie with my sister (after practically dragging her there because she refused to believe she'd like it) and it was one of the most enjoyable movies we'd seen in awhile. It was pretty silly all the way though and I'd really recommend it.
You know what? I think I remember having a huge tub with Legos in it as well. I think I remember the sounds of it when you rummage through them in my head. They always made that weird sound that sounded like a bunch of coins in a chest or wallet. I think the legos dissappeared though, and then the tub was filled with nothing but toys that we grew out of, and some old pieces of candy. (Yuck! I remember when we were moving last summer, and we saw an old piece of chocolate that was wrapped in a baseball designed wrapper. That must've been in there for years! I think since 2006! :sick

I think I also remember seeing a fort of some sort kinda thing that was made out of Lego blocks. (I think my oldest brother built it.) Though, I think some of the pieces were missing from it. Since we moved, all of our legos and mega blocks stuff dissapeared. Probably in storage with my stuffed animals and 2004 My little pony toys that I don't even play with anymore and grew out of. The only things I enjoy now that are quite childish is collecting stuffed animals. I still have one that's from the 80s! My mother got it from a vending machine back then. (She originally got it for my oldest brother. Though somehow, when I was about 2 or 3, I got my hands on it and has loved it ever since.) I still have it (It's a stuffed reindeer btw.) today and place it by my pillow. I even gave it a weird name when I was little. Yeah, so it's called Cha-Cha! (Don't ask. I was a weird kid back then.)
Sorry for talking soo much. That's a habit of mine and I'm guessing it runs in the family.
