This two pager tells a story about a recurring character in the stories I used to make up with the older dgk's when they were little, combined with photos of the younger ones this year. I found alien glasses and had to get a set for each of these little boys b/c they reminded me of those stories. Actually started telling some of the stories with these guys too.
