Star Wars

Yesterday we went to the Star Wars exibit at the Anchorage Museum. Joachim's Godfather, Peter, met us there. It was rather expensive but was fun. They had props, models, and costumes from all six movies. The Wookie costumes were huge - much bigger than I expected. Darth Vader's costume was also bigger than I expected. The only thing we did not do was ride the Millineum Falcon - it was a 90 minute wait! After looking at the Star Wars stuff I made Joachim and Macrina go look at the Alaska History section of the museum. It is basically the same exibit since I was a child but I still think it is really cool. We then went to eat lunch at IHOP. Here are some pictures.

Macrina with Princess Leai costuem from 'A New Hope' R2D2 and C3PO.
Macrina in with Darth Vader, I belive this was from 'A New Hope.' Joachim did not want his picture with Darth Vader.

Joachim and the Snow Monster from 'The Empire Strikes Back.' This was used in the new extended version of the movie.

Joachim and Macrina looking down on the fountain in the old section of the museum.

Macrina

Kari, Zoe, Peter and Macrina walking down the stairs in the new section of the Museum.

Joachim checking out the different Light Sabers. Count Dooku's, Mace Windu's (the only purple light saber blade), Darth Maul's, Obi-Wan Kenobi's and Darth Sidious aka the Emperor, or Senator Palpatine's were some of the light sabers on display.

Macrina and Zoe. Zoe is not 9lbs 8oz. She is quite the little chunk. Its really hard to tell what color hair she has. It might be red.
