Fun with Blocks

Blocks, do they ever get old? Clearly this family still likes to play with blocks and we’re having some good times AND making great memories!

The best part about these old wooden blocks is they originally belonged to my dad and uncle which makes them 60+ years old, and then they were played with by the rest of the Anderson clan, the uncles and aunts, the cousins, the grand kids, the great grand kids, friends of the family, and many more.

These wooden blocks have literally been played with thousands of times and they are still fun to play with. The simplicity of the blocks inspires us to use our imaginations and we’ve come up with some great buildings. Josh came over and built the Lincoln Memorial and then the Parthenon (although I don’t have a picture), then Camryn knocked them all over of course. She’s great at stacking too – she continually amazes us with her talent and skill.

You're silly uncle Javi! Blocks don't go in your nose!

Our toothbrush made from the old wooden blocks. See, we CAN be creative.
