Buzz lightyear to the rescue




















Oliver was thrilled to find out that for his first time dressing up at Halloween he got to be Buzz Lightyear, one of his longtime favourite characters ever since he discovered Toy Story. We got to see him at his Playgroup Halloween party today and he was definitely one of the best singers of the group when they performed Halloween songs for all of the parents at the end.

Now we just have to figure out how to get him a big haul of sweets while trick or treating since it turns out to be a bit different here. They expect people here to recite a poem, tell a joke, or do something funny each time you go to a house. A lot of people at work were surprised how easy we had it in Canada as kids when all you really had to say was "trick or treat"!

Buzz - good luck in the sweets haul this Halloween. We know you'll make it to infinity and beyond.

Good work, Oliver. You make a great cosmic recruit.

Happy Birthday Buzz lightyear birthday boy! (in a couple hours) You have a matching twin cousin in buzz lightyear costume and your older cousin and second cousin (?) also dressed like twins- Rach and Syd were Mario and Luigi!
