A little delayed notification....

So my boys are OBSESSED WITH LEGOS!!!  They are 8 1/2 and 6 1/2 and they love everything about Legos.

We get the bi-monthly Lego Club, Jr. (ages 3-7) and Lego Club (ages 8-12) magazines.  And every two months my boys (and my daughter because she gets her own magazine now) spend hours looking through the magazines over and over and over again.  The anayalize every page and picture.  They dream of what they would do if they were to win a contest for building a certain themed Lego, and sometimes they ask for me to print a picture that they take and mail it off to the contest.  I think the last time they did this was July or August.  {*Writer's sidebar - this is because in September we took their Legos away as punishment and they are just on the verge of getting them back...but that's another post}.

We've NEVER heard from them but I figured we wouldn't less they won.  And I know there are A LOT of entries so the chance of them winning is almost as good as the chance of me winning the 550 MILLION DOLLAR powerball lottery drawing tonight (which I don't have a ticket for...maybe later).

Well low and behold both of my boys got a postcard in the mail today...

This is the text of the postcard:


{Dear Hank, 

Thank you for entering the LEGO Superheroes Avengers Building Challenge. We received hundreds of great entries from LEGO Club Members just like you.

Winners will be notified by mail and photos of the winning entries will be published in the September/October 2012 LEGO Club Magazine.

Thanks again for your participation. We hope you continue to enjoy the LEGO Club.

Happy Building.}

I appreciate their acknowledgement of my boys admission but to have it postmarked NOVEMBER 19, 2012...for a contest that winners will be announced in the September/October 2012 magazine...I'm thinking they are a little behind in opening their mail!!
