Spiritual Lego

Sunday afternoons at our house are a "throw-the-rules-out-the-window-fend-for-yourself" type of lifestyle. I may be reading the scriptures about "keeping the Sabbath Day" loosely, but it works for our family in our stage of life right now. After we eat (which is more like foraging), people kind of do their own thing. Since we don't have the TV on, the kids are actually forced into enjoying each other's company (usually) while babies nap, Daddy's nap (well, there's really only one Daddy, and he is usually going to meetings or out on visits, but napping would be his choice if he were given one), and I read or pick up the kitchen (which is generally the result of foraging) or talk to my sisters on the phone.

Last Sunday, Austin disappeared to his room. A little while later, I walked in to find these (and he took the pictures by himself - he was so proud):

King Benjamin in his tower:

The stand that King Benjamin is on swivels so he can talk to all of his kingdom. Don't you just love the people that are listening. I'm pretty sure that is Darth Vader in the front/left (which is good because if anyone needs King Benjamin's message, it is probably Darth Vader).

Samuel the Lamanite:

Samuel is holding a book to try to preach the gospel to those disbelieving, helmet-wearing, unrighteous Nephites.

What do you think, could we market it to Deseret Book???
