Captain America

Reese has been into Captain America lately.  He has never seen the movie and really has no idea who Captain America is but he knows he's a superhero so that's enough for him:)
The other day we were at Target and Reese saw a Captain America shield and he really, REALLY, REEEEALLY wanted one.  Well his mean Mommy didn't buy it for him so he had to improvise:)
He and Abby came up with a "plan".  Step one was to get a trash can lid from Poppa's garage..one of those metal lids that look like a shield.  And if step one was successful and it was--thanks Poppa...hope you don't need that lid:) then they would paint it red,white and blue.  So this is what they have been up to for the past 2 days.

Poppa, did they explain they were painting it? I sure hope so or I owe you a new trash can! ha!

It's turning out pretty cool!  Tomorrow they will put the finishing touches....here's what they have so far....
working hard

yesterday's work...pretty snazzy:)
