She just recently passed away..it fits with the thread! See my Star Trek internet series links....they gave a wonderful account of her importance to the franchise. She was also Nurse Chapel in the original series. . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majel_Barrett

LOL @ Jabba the Trash Bag. I don't think the cardboard costumes are likely to take any awards for Best Backyard Star Wars Costume Design though. C3PO's arm tape is coming loose. Kudos for the garbage can "R2S2" though.

It's great that the children have such vivid imaginations.....I thought they were "original". We only used aluminum foil when we were kids... .
