Juel's Birthday

Juel had a great Birthday. He loved waking up to his new Star Wars bedroom. He had some presents he opened throughout the day and he had the best birthday party ever!

A present from the twins.

His friends and cousins at his party.

Here is the food with the labels I made. They boys all thought this was awesome!

Darth Vader Dogs & Chewbacca Chips

Anakin Apples, Galactic Empire Grapes, & Padme Popcorn

Beach Trooper Black Cherry, R2D2 Rootbeer, and Yoda Soda

Mmmm!

We had a Jedi training session like the one at Disneyland. I had Star Wars music playing and we practiced our moves then suddenly Darth Vader appeared and the boys got to fight him one by until until....

They had him curled up in a ball and crying like a baby. Notice Anna in my arms crying the whole time because she was scared of Darth Vader.

Then the boys went on a mission which was an obstacle course we made and they had to fight Darth Vader again and rescue Princess Padme. Then we had a treasure hunt where I had hung up 15 different pictures of Star Wars characters and they had to listen to the clue and run find that character until at the end they found goody bags.

Then we went in and opened presents. Juel asked each kid who was their favorite Star Wars character and movie. This was a fun interaction for the kids.

Then we had cake and this is the one Juel picked out. The Death Star cake was made by Melinda and it turned out so cute! So did the cupcake toppers!

Then we watched Juels favorite movie Return of the Sith until the parents came to get the kids.

The boys and Juel had an awesome time! I don't know if I could top this party!

Then Juel had some time to open more presents and practice his light saber moves.

He's such a good kid and I'm so glad he's apart of our family. He is so smart and loves to read anything. He even started to read a family home evening book he found in the office. At the last Dad's and sweetroll's Grandpa got to take him and he said that the fourth grade teacher heard him reading and he said he reads better than his fourth graders! Grandpa was so proud him! Well I hope he had a magical Star Wars day! I love you Juel!
