I SURE HE SAID 'MASTER VADER'
Last night we had a Scout meeting. Well afterwards the boys were playing around and since all the boys are into Star Wars, that was what they were playing. At one point my son's friend said to him 'Master Vader what are you orders.' Now say 'Master Vader' out loud with no pause between the two words...

I'VE SPENT THE AFTERNOON TAKING CARE OF TWO SICK BOYS

BUILDING BASES FROM CARDBOARD BOXES
My boys are right now really getting into GIJoe. My oldest picked up a two pack of figures with his birthday money and gave one to his brother, which I was very proud of him for doing.

THEY HELPED SET THE CHRISTMAS TREE UP YESTERDAY
My boys worked with my wife to get the Christmas tree up yesterday. I was working on some of the other decorations around the house while they did that.

MY BOYS ARE REALLY HAVING TO TWIST MY ARM ON THIS ONE
We were just out and about looking at Halloween stuff (Which everyone with any sense of enjoyment of life should be doing regularly right now) and my boys asked when we were going to put stuff out. I told them mom won't let us until next week. They weren't happy over that. Now I saw they unhappy...

THE MYSTERIOUS COOKIE CUTTER
My youngest son got a set of cookies cutters as a prize last week and he wanted to make cookies. Well today we made a batch and I went and dug out some other cookies cutters to use as well. One of them is a very odd shape and I have no idea at all as to what it is suppose to be. It almost looks like...
