Just goofing around with the TBs guys!

I have a set of the Bandai Thunderbirds guys (Scott, Virgil, John, Gordon, and Alan) and they sit on my desk in front of my monitor. I also have a little Matchbox version of Jeff Tracy who sits on my monitor base. My kids are always having fun fooling around with them, and occasionally I take a picture of what they've done to the guys.

This first picture is one from today.

This second one is a photo I took some time ago, and that my daughter has been using for a painting project in her art class. It's to be shown at an art show at her school this weekend. She really likes how it came out and since it's now framed and all, she wants to put it up above my desk for me. I can hardly wait to see what it looks like! (She's hoping to get offers on her two other pieces... but this one will not be for sale!)

I hope you are aware that you and your kids have impeccable taste. :D

When I look at that first picture, I think EVERYBODY CONGA! Jeff is sitting on the sidelines as the boys celebrate the successful outcome of a rescue in their own way, all the time thinking, 'Sooo not my kids!'

Conga??! I never thought of it that way, but I betcha dollars to donuts that my kids were!! (And if they weren't, their dad might have been; he likes messing with my Tracys, too!) I love your take on Jeff's reaction! Too funny, Ellie!!

Teehee, I ought to write a fic on this... the Tracys dancing around, one arm on each other's shoulders and shaking rattles in one hand... *Cracks up* I don't think I'd put it past the movie-verse lot at any rate!
