Sunday: family time

Today we had official family time.  It's not much different from most of Saturday other than it's mandatory.  Usually we do a game, but Joshua has never been a fan of that and it was his turn to choose.  So we opened up the options for him today and he chose a Lego challenge: everyone had to make a boat.

Due to time restraints, we had about 35 minutes before dinner.  Ben said we'd try to finish in 15 and then maybe do another challenge.  

At the 15 minute mark Isaac was done and no one else was close.  So, as I expected, we extended the time.  Isaac made a second boat.


Ben made the black boat.  I missed most of the story behind it.  I made the Christmas raft in the front.  It has presents!  It also has holes in the bottom of the boat as it turns out making the sides and then trying to backfill the bottom doesn't work all that well.  Joshua has a boat bathhouse on the right.  He has a tiny boat in a bathtub in a house.  There's also a red towel that you can barely see.  Isaac first made the back right boat: I think it's supposed to be underwater with a bunch of animals on it.  Then he made the top left boat.  The boat that you can see above water is a decoy; the actual boat is a submarine underneath.
