Thats pretty cool. Nothing like quality time with the kids.

My kids are in college now - and I truly miss the time we used to spend on "crafts" and various school projects etc. My daughter is still home - but between working PT and classes -- and homework we only get a couple hours a day of face time. Still - she'll come down to the shed to check out what's getting done - and is always interested in how stuff works etc.

Great costume! Reminds me of when Alex and I made a "Teenage Ninja Turtle" version. He wore it for days!

I like the green smiley, and the pic where hes holding up the helmet. I'm sure he will never forget this halloween?
