Hubby went to a nearby city for a meeting a couple of weeks ago and ran into Walmart before heading home. He likes to browse the clearance section and every once in a while he finds something pretty fun! This time he found quite the find, a costume left over from Halloween for a couple of bucks! To most this would be considered junk but to our oldest it is the costume of all costumes..."J" loves clone troopers and to have a costume that makes him one it is the best thing to his little imaginary world. Now if it was me I would be the main character like Luke or Han or Obi-Wan or Annakin (sp?) but "J" thinks the clones are soooo cool, and lines up his army when ever little brother will allow, preparing for his battle.
In the morning you can count on the first sound a little ping-ping from his sound effects simulating the sound of their guns off the cartoon, a sound my mom laughs at when ever she hears it over the phone. He is always playing Star Wars and all though the main character are gathering dust, his clones are racing into battle all day.
You can only imagine the excitement when his dad finally gave it to him last night, after having to work to earn it. He is now a "real" clone.

Brock thinks that costume looks so cool! They will have such a blast playing together in March! I am so excited for that little (or big rather) family get together. It will be a blast!
When Dawson saw "J" in this post he was like HEY, do you think I could have one of those!? He must be a lucky kid to have such a desired item..... and for cheap!
