Alex made the Lego "Alpha Rex" over the course of a couple of days, mostly by himself.

Alex made the Lego Architecture "Brandenburg Gate" today almost entirely by himself. Thanks uncle David and Aunt Judy!

After the first round of official Lego derby car runs at Techno Chaos. Alex, Heather and Todd's car was "Light Radiator". Our car was named by Alex.

Alex kept track of some of our "unofficial" practice times.

A good time of 3.24 seconds.

The owners of Techno Chaos let Alex and some of the other kids control some of the robots after the races were finished.

First communion.

At the Ballunar Festival and JSC Open House. More photos from this day are at Todd's Space Page.

An authentic Shuttle heat-shield tile. It was very light. It felt fragile and there was tiny granules (silicon?) coming off of it as one handled it. This was another treat. More photos from this day are at Todd's Space Page.

A picture in the deactivated OV-95, in building 16 at JSC, the test "shuttle" that was used for avionics hardware and software testing. Before it flew on a flight shuttle, it was "flown" here first. Here is Alex aft of the payload bay bulkhead (i.e., aft of the payload bay). I think this is where the main engines and APUs (among other equipment) are on a flight shuttle. More photos from this day are at Todd's Space Page.
