A Boy and his AT-AT

Matthew has wanted the Lego Star Wars AT-AT for SO long. It is $150... way over our Christmas/birthday budget for sure, so we told he he would have to save up money to buy it himself. He is definitely our "spender" (Evelyn is our "saver"), so I wasn't sure if he had the will power to do it. BUT... he did. He saved his allowance for months and then got birthday and Christmas money which allowed him to reach his goal!

We ordered it from Amazon (part of his savings was an Amazon gift card) and it arrived yesterday. To say he was over the moon excited would be an understatement!



The box was HUGE!! Over 1300 pieces! He was up for the challenge, tho!





We thought it would take him a few days to finish it. Nope. He worked on it for about 4 hours yesterday and about 4 hours today.. and he completed it! He was quite proud of his new creation. 

We are pretty proud of him to! Thankful for my lego-loving boy!
