May the Fourth Be With You.

My poor kids were already going to grow up thinking that Christmas Adam (the day before Christmas Eve) and Pi Day (March 14th) are normal holidays and now we have added another to the list.  Enter . . . May the Fourth Be with You.  We had so much fun with this one that I am pretty sure it is going to turn into an annual tradition.  I mean any excuse to watch Star Wars is a good one.  And by Star Wars, I mean the original three and maybe the Phantom Menace (but only because Darth Maul is just so dang sexy).  

I got most of the ideas here.  I don't know how people were "creative" before the internet.  Haha.

Watermelon death star.

Leia Cupcakes

Sweet and Salty Light Sabers.  

Pool Noodle Light Sabers. (A big big hit with the kids)

Star Wars fruit snacks frozen in carbonite.  
 And do you know what made me the most proud about this party?  I did all the food myself.  Usually I make my husband do all the cooking when we have people coming over.
