Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head out for a stroll

This is a little boy in my neighborhood I see a lot as we both go for lots of walks. This day was special as he was taking his Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head out for a stroll in his Jeep stroller. I would also like to point out how the bunny ears have been placed in the form of a mohawk. I love the creativity of kids!

And adults! Which brings me to crafty blogger links du jour!
