He'd been gone seeing his dad and other family for the past four days, but now he is back.
He left and then the weather improved drastically.
The kids and I didn't do anything too interesting while he was gone; school, playing outside while the weather was nice, and general household stuff.
Several weeks ago, Osric asked me to help him write a letter to Lego -- he'd found an instruction booklet from one of the Monster Fighters sets, and was disappointed that sets from that line are no longer made. So I wrote the letter, he signed his name, and then very excitedly sent it off to Lego. This week, we got a letter back:
It reads:
"Dear Osric,
Thanks for getting in touch with us. It is awesome to hear from such a huge LEGO fan like you!
We appreciate your comments, so I'll be passing you interest in LEGO Monster Fighters on to the design team. You never know, some of the old treasures might make a comeback!
I agree that the spooky stuff from the Monster Fighters theme is really cool! It would be neat to have more spooky LEGO models to build for display around Halloween time. Have you ever thought of designing your own spooktastic LEGO models? If you do, you should totally share them on the LEGO Life app!
Happy Building!
Melanie
LEGO Service"
Osric was so jazzed to get back a letter! He and Corwin immediately went and started working on some Monster Fighters-esque sets.
