Star Wars Has Taken Over Our House

It really has.  Tommy is into it so Charlotte loves it too.  He has seen all the 6 originals and prequels.  He really enjoys them.  They are most likely too intense with too many adults themes so we've had a lot of conversations and I think we still need to cover quite a few things but he's obsessed.

So this is what our household looks like on any given day.

It doesn't always end in tears, I promise. 

Star Wars Game

 I don't know if you've heard about this movie, Star Wars something or other,  coming out recently but I guess there were 6 movies before it and it's going to be huge.  Anyway, it was a heavily marketed movie, so heavily in fact, that they even were promoting at our home Purdue game. 

 My parents and father in law took our tickets and took Tommy to the game because Tommy is a brand new fan to the franchise.  But it's hard to see them.  Let me zoom in. ;-) 

 Not much better but at least you can see them a little now.  Tommy is probably asking LOTS of questions right at this point.

 We had the opportunity to go to the game too. We weren't planning to go but we got a call from the Deichman family and they offered us some tickets.  Sweet!! Plus Gaga said she could watch Char Char Binks so it worked out splendidly!

 They had light saber fights during halftime and they had a lot of characters come out during the time outs.  It was awesome. 

The characters even stood in the concourse so we could get our pictures taken with them.  Tommy was a little terrified since Darth Vader was, no joke, about 7 feet tall.  Awesome!  He may have been scared but he was also super excited! 
What a cool event.  Not only did Tommy love it but so did we. It was also super cool to see the Deichmans.  We haven't seen them since Tommy's second birthday party. What a fun day!
