New Poll

I don't know why, but it seems like I've got Star Wars on the brain. Here's a new poll in keeping with my (and my kids') newest interest.

We join our heroes on the forest moon of Endor...

...keep watching for the exciting conclusion!

The Saga Begins...

This weekend was a banner one for the Sinagra family. As part of my on-going effort to turn my children into geeks (and thereby prevent all those pesky "dating" issues) we went Saturday to see the Star Wars exhibit at the Franklin Institute. Of course the wait was outrageous so we got tickets for a later time (6:30pm) and went out for lunch after a few quick photos.

Joey was fascinated by Chewbacca, Carmellina was a little overwhelmed by everything.

We made a stop at Brave New Worlds, one of my favorite comic book shops in Old City. Saturday was National Free Comic Book Day and Rosemary and I (Carmellina wasn't interested) went in and got a couple issues for ourselves. Rosemary also learned a little about the Silver Surfer.

We had some lunch at Ikea (really...it's not bad)...

...and then headed back to the museum.

We explored the kids exhibit and finally got in to see the Star Wars exhibit. This was our fourth and final attempt so I'm glad we finally got in. There's plenty of pics in the slide show to the right.

On Sunday we went to church and then had lunch out and Ben & Jerry's ice cream in Rittenhouse Park.

Then we went home and I took a long nap.

What a weekend.
