We're a Lego Family

We found this cool Lego Mini Figure builder, and spent a lot of time playing around with it yesterday.  Whenever I'm using my computer Charlie tells me "you're just messing around Mom" and yesterday this was actually true.  Here are the results of our messing around.  We each took turns making little people to represent our true selves.  I think Charlie's is the coolest.  David's is very revealing.  And Tommy's is just cute.

Me first

 David

Charlie, as he truly sees himself

And Tommy Potter

You should do it too!  Just be sure to go through it with your kids the first time as there are a few items that are not age appropriate (like cigarettes and guns).  Saving the images is a bit tricky.  You have to press the print-screen button on your keyboard, then open an image program like MS Paint and ctl+v to paste the image of the whole page into it.  Then you can crop and save.  Enjoy!

I really want to make one of these, but how could anybody possibly come up with one as bizarre and cool as Charlie's? I can't tell if that thing is my new hero, or is going to give me nightmares.

These are indeed creative mess arounds! They are almost as weird as the Skype avatars that Ben and Erin had in China. I especialy like your background Sally and Tommy is true to his core. What fun. Charlie and David???? --love those goofy guys.
