Last Saturday, Jeff and I woke up at (I) 9:00, and drove to downtown Oklahoma, where a Lego building contest would take place. It was called The Great OKC Build, and was at the Skirvin Hotel. The Build was from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. When we arrived, we had a hard time finding parking because all of the “Lego Fanatics” (including us) in Oklahoma had already taken the closest parking spots. When we finally did park, it was 9:53, so we hurried into the Skirvin and made our way up the narrow stairs to the second floor.

On the second floor, we were led to the Grand Ballroom, and found our table with our team name: “JJ Blox” (Taken from our previous RockBand name), and a picture a building. As the contest began we were given our objective: We were to build a replica of the picture of the building we were given. When our group was told to gather our pieces, we rushed up to the tables that were loaded with Legos  of all shapes, sizes, and colors. As soon as we had gathered all we thought we would need, we began to build. At 11:30, Jeff and I went over to the Crystal Room and ate lunch. I picked a box that read, “Roast Beef”, and Jeff chose one with some other meat on it. The food inside the boxes were fairly good. At 12:00, we headed back to the Grand Ballroom (I love writing that) and got back to work. With full stomachs, we made good progress. We finished on time, and took a couple pictures. (Below) Enjoy!
