In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit...

On Saturday we needed a rainy afternoon activity...


It was so wet even Bilbo didn't want to go outside,


he sat by the door waiting for a dry spell. 
While we decided to build Bag End!


With a fondness for the Hobbit (after all we named our cat after one) and a passion for lego this was the perfect present for Lex at Christmas! We've been waiting for the right time to build this house, a time when we can enjoy the activity and get it finished in one go!


Each bag was laid out in sections.


And we started to build...


It started to take shape fairly quick...


The little details in this set are brilliant...





Bilbo inspecting out efforts!


Putting in the windows...


Adding the food...


This made us rather hungry so we made some bread!


Inside shots...




The finished article...


It's so cool...


"Dwalin and Bofur at your service"


And here's The finished Bag End, 
sitting in pride of place with our other lego pieces!
