Rock... Paper....

One day our neighbor Heather was riding with us and she decided to teach Emily how to play 'Rock, Paper, Scissors'. Amazingly enough, Emily won the first several rounds she played.


Sitting in the back, Keighly and Ian decided to give it a try. After several rounds, Ian had lost every time. Getting frustrated (and determined to win!), on the next round Ian said "Rock... Paper... Lightsaber!"

Jango Bear

Ian is a big fan of Jango Fett.

When his class decided to dress a bear in the style of what they wanted to be when they grow up (ie doctor, fireman, etc), Ian said Jango Fett!



Jango Fett is the origin of all the clone troopers, storm troopers, and bounty hunter Boba Fett. While driving to school one day, we were discussing older cartoons and I brought up the Smurfs.

When I mentioned that there was only one female in the colony, Smurfette, Ian immediately thought she was also a decendant of Jango Fett!

Jango Fett, Boba Fett, Smur-Fett!
