Use The Force

Some of us need the "force" more than others in our family.

Our kids are embracing Star Wars this year.  We have Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and a little Yoda.

Walker has been a good sport about being Yoda since the beginning. He even tells people willingly to, "Use the Force!"

I was not sure that I was going to get Georgia in the Leia costume until the last second. She kept insisting that she was pulling out an old princess costume to wear. I told her to just put the Leia costume on for a picture for me. She actually obliged, and once she was wearing it, I kept going on and on about how cute it was.
The next thing I knew we were out the door without a fight. I guess she decided she was going to be able to pull of Leia better than she had originally thought! That girl knows how to give her Mama a run for her money!

Will loves his costume so much that he has lost, and then found the pieces to it again, and again, because he keeps wearing it around the neighborhood. I have seen Darth Vader running down the street with his light saber in hand at least three times now in the weeks leading up to Halloween.

Wally was willing to be any Star Wars character except anybody from the "Dark Side."

Del and I decided once again this year that we should just accentuate our true colors. So we went as very last minute, thrown together, nerds.

I will post some of our Halloween festivities later. We have crammed quit a few in this 2012 season.
