Invited you are!

To a birthday party with 18 kids and only 2 adults!! WOW!!
Jack wanted a Star Wars Clone War Birthday, so with great hesitancy that's what I planned. We started off with some Jedi Training.

Next we divided into the Jedi Warriors And the Sith Warriors

And then the war began!
The kids loved this War game. They would start on either side of the lawn and then run towards the middle and fight. You got out by being hit by the light sabre/noodle. Whoever was out had to lay down on the ground. Finally they would all be out but the winner. They must have played this 10 times!!

Then Darth Vador made an appearance.He was taken out within 30 seconds. We trained them well!We also played "pin the light sabre to Luke" and a timed puzzle game. The girls did get a little bored with all the fighting, so I pulled out some markers and they decorated their light sabres.

My sister Kara came over on Friday and we made this Yoda Cake. I think it turned out awesome. We had a little trouble with the frosting, and it actually turned hard as a brick. Luckily I had extra cupcakes. But I drilled some holes is the cake and we blew out candles!! Thanks all who sent their kids. I think they had a great time! At least they came home tired ;)
