In general a I would guess Saturday would be better because it gives the option
of meeting in the evening. Though having said that, I only have a few weekends
that I don't already have plans for. I could meet on a weekday after work,
I'll just leave a little early. I think 2-4 hours would be a good range to
plan on, if we're having fun it's very easy to run later then we planned.

I have two daughters, ages 9 and 6, and one son, age 2. They all like Legos
though my son mostly just likes to make a mess with them.

What about TAMALE - The Awesome Mid-Atlantic Lego Enthusiasts :)

What should we bring, maybe a favorite creation or completed set?
