This year I decided to let John choose his own birthday party theme. He has somewhat of an obsession with Star Wars. OK it is a full blown obsession, complete with knowing the names of all the characters, and what special powers each one has, oh and what color light saber they carry. JT is so proud!
First we sent the kids through rigorous Jedi training...
Then Darth Vader showed up to test their skills...
The Jedis had been trained well, and the only way Darth Vader could defeat them was with Silly String...
Then we enjoyed cake and presents. This was my second attempt with fondant, and each time I learn something new...
Oh yea, and we had a pinata. No seriously, that is a perfect description of it. I swear if you stared at it the wrong way, it would have broken. After one hit, the thing broke in half. It's not as if the kids cared, but I really wished it could have lasted longer. This is the only pic I had time to get...
It was really fun to see John and his friends enjoying Star Wars as much as JT and I did as kids!

that is one awesome bday party!
Zac still talks about that party and he still runs around hitting Landon with his "light saver" but he calls it the pirate game. I guess he's a little confused
love the shirt JT. is that a rhetorical question?
That is the party of any boy's dreams (hey, and probably some girls. . .). Boy, your cakes won't be on CakeWrecks anytime soon. . .fabulous job! I wish you were here to do the cake for Dad's birthday--OK, I just plain wish you were here for Dad's birthday! But we'll see ya soon. . . JT, that Silly String reminded me of when you gave Tiffer some and you ended up covered in it! Ha!
