    Legos, marbels and roller skates. On rainy sundays my whole family would get the lego's out and build houses and see who had the nicest, biggest or most interesting one... I had dolls but the were not as much fun :)

    I got a bride doll that I wanted really badly for Christmas one year. I named her Mary. I loved that doll. I also had a teddy bear named Old Faithful. He was probably my most favorite toy of all. Man, I wish I still had that teddy bear!

    I still have my Nintendo and have taught my kids to play it! Of course after a while, my daughter says, "mom, I think I'm just gonna go play my Nintendo DS"...UGH, things are not nearly as simple as they once were made! I loved my Lite Brite and my Rainbow Bright doll and her flying horse :laugh:
