Lego Coloring Book Party Favors

My son was having a small bowling birthday party with some friends from school.  He's really into Legos these days and I saw a pin on Pinterest with these cute Lego coloring books.  However you had to pay to download them.  I didn't want to do that, so I found some free images that you could download and created my own coloring books.  
I only need 10 but accidentally printed 20, I forgot there were 2 per page!  Oops!  That's what happens when I try to multitask.  So we gave some to cousins and other friends.
 You print the cover page on card stock, I used colored card stock.  And the inside pages I printed double sided.  Then you cut them in half, arrange your book and sew it down the middle!!!  How cool!!!!  You sew it!  So genius!  I love it!  I'm sure you could staple it, but I love that it's sewn!
 Now how easy is that?
We also bought each kid a little Lego figure and put them in a sandwich bag then I made that cute little topper to staple to the top of the bag.  It says "Thank you for building me up on my birthday!"  How cute, cuz you build with Lego's... get it?
Here's what they looked like all put together...
 Here is the jpeg if you want to right click and save this image.  I accidentally printed the first page too small, as you can see in the image above, 3 of them all smaller.  But I think it still looks fine.
Here is a close look at the inside of some of the pages.  I wanted that plain Lego to be last so the kids can create their own figure.



I think they are super cute and so I wanted to share them with everyone.  I don't know how to create them so you go to a website and download them, but you can right click and "save as" them.  Hopefully that works for you.  If anyone wants to tell me how to create them so you can download them in one click that would be great!  Please just leave a comment.
Here are the pages...

Balloon Drop

Dave is in the Stake Young Men's Presidency and they were doing a New Years Eve dance for the youth.  They wanted to do a balloon drop and Dave volunteered to do it.  He went to the church one night with another guy and they worked for like 4+ hours on this net they made with streamers, rope and glue.  Then Dave went back the morning of New Years Eve and worked on it some more with Josh and Rhett Robinson.  Then right before the dance the youth blew up the balloons and filled it.

Pretty neat huh?
