Field Trip Friday #44 Trick or Treating and Lego Screaming

For Field Trip Friday this week, we went up to Grandma Sue's office building to do trick-or-treating.  Offices all along her floor were open for children and grandchildren to come by in their costumes and get candy.  The kids thought it was a great idea, and we took Brick along with us too.  Several of the guys in Grandma Sue's office were in costumes too, and many of the offices were decorated.  There was a fairly creepy "student" mannequin outside my mom's office, and the kids stood far away from him.  He looked real-ish, but not quite human, and we thought it would be funny to have a picture.  Blythe wouldn't join us.  Brandt only came over because he had his lightsaber and I sat on the student's lap.  They had made a student ID card for him, with a name and everything, but I can't remember now what his name was.




The second part of our field trip was to go over to the library to see a Lego model of the Salt Lake Temple.  It was built with over 35,000 pieces and looks super cool.  There is even an angel Moroni on the top (a gold painted Obi-Wan Kenobi figure).  There were several other smaller constructions and Brandt in particular really liked it.  


Just outside the room where the Legos were, there was a large King Kong figure.  It was advertising the original movie being shown as part of the Film Archive Series the library has each semester.  It was big and scary and Brick shot it with his gun, a gun we probably shouldn't have really had in the library, but it was green and plastic and carried by a two year old, so I couldn't imagine anyone would actually feel threatened.  As we walked back across campus to the car, we had to make a stop at the outdoor sculpture garden of the MOA.  The kids love to climb around on the metal statues.  All in all, it was a good field trip.


Brick kept stopping along the way to say to passing students, "I Batman!"
Yep.  The cutest Batman ever.

Batman, Anna, and Anakin on Buck
