He's doing it. He's growing up.
 |
| Making a wish on a cupcake on his actual birthday. I think he wished to eat a cupcake. He could stand to mature a little in terms of his long-range wish planning. |
 |
| We had a small family party this year. "Small" didn't mean that we lacked at all for gifts, however. And most people seemed to get that Ernie is really into Star Wars lately. |
 |
| A talking Darth Vadar mask, a Star Wars Lego Minifigure Encyclopedia, Star Wars transformers, Star Wars pajamas, Star Was Lego sets, Star Was gumbo, fried Star Wars, Star Wars cocktail . . . |
 |
| Mom is not a natural party planner or decorator for special events, so all must humor as she documents the efforts. Light saber suckers for party favors, glow in the dark sabers, and Star Wars character cupcake toppers. |
 |
| We had to save all the toothpick toppers for weeks after. I'm amazed no one was stabbed. It's a good thing our animals are still young and fast. |
 |
| Yoda soda. |
 |
| Prepare for battle! |
 |
| Prepare for sugar-high! |
 |
| Kitt and Maisie are fans of cake, and it's so nice to have them over because they play so naturally with our kids. Plus sometimes the parents get to talk just a little bit. |
 |
| Maisie was quite talented with her saber! |
 |
| Star Wars Legos have taught Ernie to follow illustrated instructions really well. But he needed Dad's help to build the full Tatooine land cruiser. And we've now seen all of the original trilogy. |
