My boys are obsessed with costumes and pretending to be things they are not. They ask me to help them make costumes so frequently that we finally had to create a costume day this past winter. Every Monday was costume day. On this particular Monday a couple months ago the boys were Darth Vader and Storm Trooper. Storm Trooper mask courtesy of Uncle Travis about three Christmases ago, Darth mask courtesy of a 3-minute sew-and-cut-up-some-scrappy-black-polyester-job.
During the big move/transition last summer and fall, Max desperately missed his storm trooper mask which ended up in some random box, not alongside the storm-jumpsuit. He begged and begged for me to find it, which I did, months later. Until that day though, someone else was making do with something he found in the gift bag box.
And I promise this wasn't a quick-put-this-on-it-will-be-funny. This was Oliver playing without seeing where he was going for like three days straight. Now you tell me who is the real trooper.

LOVE it!!! I must send you the clip about telling your children about Star Wars. :D Obviously you've trained yours well.
Oh how I wish you lived closer. I would love to come and play :D
This is hilarious, so cute!
Oliver is such a cute trooper. I can just see him now, tilting his head back so he could see where he was going. Such a cute story.
miss you all. Give all the boys a hug and squeeze for me.
Ha ha ha!!! This is so funny!! I love it! Love those boys! We love pretending around our house, too.
