At the start of the quarantine I was looking for things to do with the kids, so I ordered this @LEGO_Group set of @Disney’s Cinderella’s castle. Well it finally delivered this past weekend, so guess what we’re doing? #ThisThingIsHuge #GetYourBrickOn #BuildSomethingBeautiful 
20+ bags and a 490 page instruction manual!
Finished with bag 1 (which was really several bags, but whatever). We have a solid foundation to build on! I built while the kids got the LEGOs ready.
Done with bag 2! Several support structures are now in place. The 8 year old built while I organized. #TeamworkMakesTheDreamWork
Bag(s) 3 done! Some structural supports and some finishes on the front stoop. Kids switched off building and finding. #TheHappiestPlaceOnEarth
Bag(s) 4 complete! Lots of detail added to the back and a lot more ceiling structure. Kids did nearly all of the finding (do I have to?!?) and building. #ItsASmallWorldAfterAll
Divide and conquer was the theme today. One kid did bag 5 and the other did bag 6. They did a great job requiring little assistance and few reworks! Foundation for towers with some fun stuff on the inside. #MakingTheMagic
After a long hiatus bag 7 is done! All work on the iconic clock tower. The kids wanted to help, but I needed the @LEGO_Group therapy tonight. #SorryNotSorry #ADreamIsAWishYourHeartMakes
Needed some @LEGO_Group therapy this morning after cleaning, so bag 8 is done! All detail work on the left turrets. Also Donald got to join his friends. #ItWasAllStartedByAMouse
Bag 9 is done! Continued work on the turrets/spires. Only 194 pages of instruction left! 😳 #ItsKindOfFunToDoTheImpossible #DisneyQuotes
Back at it about 4 months later 😬 The kids did bag 10 and I added to it with bag 11. 106 pages to go in the instruction manual! #ExperienceTheMagic
Bag 12 continued to add on to the upper part of the castle. Neat little detail: Cinderella’s glass slipper is inside a glass case and locked away in a part of the castle. #TheWayToGetStartedIsToQuitTalkingAndBeginDoing #DisneyQuotes
Bag 13 started the final and highest tower of the castle. It features cannons and the magic mirror. #WhenYoureCuriousYouFindLotsOfInterestingThingsToDo #DisneyQuotes
Annnnnnnnnnd we’re done! 4,080 pieces. 486 pages of instruction. Super fun build. #BuildingTheMagic #WhenYouWishUponAStar #Disney #LEGO
