May The Force Be With You

Star Wars Episode 7: The Battle for the Big Blue Barn

Xander Skywalker didn't have much Jedi training, but he was more than ready to face down his mortal enemy.

Darth Daddy was powerful and feared throughout the galaxy. Not to mention he was packing some seriously disturbing information - "Xander...I am your father."

And so the battle raged, from the porch all the way to the side yard. The lightsabers flashed and hummed. Good vs. Evil. Jedi vs. Sith. Who would win?

In the end, the Dark Side triumphed. But don't worry, because Xander Skywalker will return to finish what he started!

TV and Me

I was just chatting with my boss about the different things we're watching on television. For people who have no cable or satellite, the Brunos watch a whole lot of TV. This is thanks mostly to Netflix and downloads from Amazon.com. In fact, we're so preoccupied with TV that I did a scrapbook layout about it! Here it is:

1st Ice Cream of the Season

The weather has warmed up (80 degrees the last three days), the trees are blooming, and more importantly all of the seasonal ice cream stands have opened up. Yay! We went to Sundaes to get our first bit of ice cream for the season, and it was good!

Xander got his usual - a baby chocolate cone (the cherry was something new). He also gets a cup, because after a few licks he dumps the ice cream in there and eats the cone.

I got my usual - a small cup of chocolate ice cream with hot fudge sauce. I never had much use for cones, even the sugar cones. (And don't look at how gray my hair is!)

Joe got a milkshake. He normally gets peanut butter-chocolate, but this time he tried the creamsicle, which was pretty good. When the girl at the counter asked him what size, Xander said "Big! Cause he's a big guy."

One more reason to love the warm weather!
