Yesterday we had a family gathering to visit for t Yesterday we had a family gathering to visit for the first time where Gran's ashes are interred, next to Grandpa's. Afterwards we had a long lunch, at which Mark was a champ. I'm so grateful to have all these people who love me and love Mark. And super thankful to have such a social and easy going baby.

Finally got a chance to pay these pretties some at Finally got a chance to pay these pretties some attention! Stabilised wood and resin pairings from @pensbycasey_ .

Rey and BB-8 on Tatooine.This is a reuse of this Rey and BB-8 on Tatooine.This is a reuse of this habitat, but I added another sun and a little more terrain. Fitting scene, as the sun has already set on my Star Wars day. I'd love to do a more gradual sunset, but I don't quite have the yellow and orange plates right now.#maythefourthbewithyou #maythe4thbewithyou #starwars #starwarsday #lego #legostarwars #afol #legomaydare @giothebrickjedi_andfam @nicole_s_brick_build_world

One of my memories (both actual memory and photo memory) is Grandpa dressing up as Santa. I don't know if he liked sci-fi, but I'd like to think he would have enjoyed dressing up with us on occasion 🤍#maythefourthbewithyou #maythe4thbewithyou #maytheforcebewithyou #starwars #starwarsday #yoda #babyyoda #marksymonds #crochet
