trick or treat

Given that I use character names for privacy on this blog, I'm aware that it's ironic for us to introduce our boys to the Star Wars movies.  I never saw the movies until college, when Mr. Kenobi insisted that I must come to know the plots in detail.  Evidently he had friends who would have been deeply concerned for his sanity had they known he was dating a woman who lacked a proper appreciation of the Lucas epics.  Anyway, I watched them and vaguely remember each.  Mr. Kenobi has waited eagerly to watch them with his boys, and I finally relented and checked them out from the library.  (Note: the library is awesome.  Free movies!  And you can take them back!!)  Now the boys know more about the plots of long long ago in a galaxy far, far away than I ever care to know.  I recently saw this spif on youtube and thought it aptly summarized the movies.

but I digress...

Tonight is Halloween, and my kids are enamored with the Star Wars movies, so they are off in characters.  For the record, we have not shown them the "new" episodes, just the original three that came out when I was about their age.  Oy.

Here are a few photos for your amusement.  As I generally try not to post many pictures of them online, I may end up taking these down eventually, but I also know the majority of my readers quite well and the kids are in costume, so I thought you'd enjoy seeing them.
