Buzzing around the Van

When I posted my weekly photos last week, Liz of Loving Mom 2 Boys requested (for her boys of course) that I post some more of my pictures of Buzz Lightyear.

You see, while we were traveling to St. George for our bicycling trip I got a little bored of just watching the scenery fly by in the van. So I got out my camera and started playing around with it.

Bored mommy + camera + toy Buzz Lightyear = lots of silly pictures.

Buzz likes to sit on the gear shifter so he can see what is going on. This allows him to properly supervise and issue commands from his vantage point.



Sometimes Buzz likes to take the wheel. After all, he is a Space Ranger. If he can fly a spaceship, surely he can drive our van!

Here is Honey Daddy taking a break while Buzz drives. Check out the cool reflection of Buzz at the wheel in his sunglasses!

Sometimes even Buzz Lightyear needs to take a break. Here he is in his isolated rest chamber (until Jonah commandeered him, that is).

This last picture is my favorite.... probably because you can see Buzz, his reflection, AND silly Honey Mommy who is taking his picture.

So now you know what happens when you leave me in a car for extended periods of time with my camera nearby. Hope you enjoyed the silliness as much as we did!

  12. Adventures with Buzz Lightyear! To infinity and beyond while driving! LOL

    I think you should start a new blogging series with Buzz. Take him on every trip with you and take his picture at some point of interest, like a Flat Stanley sort of thing. That would be hilarious! Buzz at the beach. Buzz on a roller coaster. Buzz throwing back a beer. You get the idea. :-)

    Great photos, Mommy!

  14. We have that same Buzz. Maybe I should take some creative shots of him. That's probably the only way I'll keep from breaking my neck on him since #3 leaves at the bottom of the stairs every. Single. Day.
