A geek to the core, I reside in the midst of an Iowa cornfield with my husband and four children. When I'm not chasing the kids every which way but loose, you can find me penning fantastical tales of great heroism and twue wuv...and possibly procrastinating online.

They really are! Notre Dame is one of my favorites, but Hogwarts and Minas Tirith are both amazing (although sadly, I never got to see Hogwarts in person). Gladbrook is just down the road from where I live and I love to share local news, especially when it’s as cool as this.

Oh my god, I didn’t even realize there was more to see. I just looked at the first pic and didn’t notice the Next button. The Minas Tirith model is astonishing! It must have been something to see in person.

It was! The thing is huge. I’ve got a picture somewhere of my husband standing next to it and I think it’s taller than he is. The Crooked House, the second picture, is another one of my favorites. There are just so many great models, and Matchstick Marvels changes the models out occasionally, so you get to see something new. I’ve volunteered there before and it’s awesome because people come from all over to see them.

Obviously! I wondered if that was the case. But with all the new job awesomeness, it’s not like you haven’t been busy. 🙂
