In a galaxy far far away....

It was Bridger's 5th Birthday party on Saturday--his first one with friends--and he was soooo excited!  I don't know what started his fascination with Star Wars, but that's what he requested.  Look at this pose, he calls it his "Master Yoda" face...





Here he is with Queen Amadala.  I had no idea how to dress her up like that--so I gave her 7 ponytails with 7 ribbons and she was pretty happy about that. 





Master Jedi Nielson and his young padawan, Bridger.  Jeremy trained all the younglings to become jedi's.  He was the best one for the job too, the kids loved it!


Sweet Charlotte was so good during the party.  And luckily, Jeremy's parents were able to come and help out, because a little baby is a full time job :)


Here's all the kids minus two who came later--they were all so cute in their costumes!  I thought it was funny that none of the girls (except Kennedy) dressed up.  I'm sure if it were a princess party, things would be different!



Bridger requested rainbow cupcakes for his cake.  Well, really he didn't ask for them, I recommended them, but he was happy nonetheless.  I was just excited to try them out :)


And I'm on a water-bottle-label-making kick right now.  But the kids had fun picking out their water bottles!










I also made lightsabers, or chocolate covered pretzels with foil handles.  So cute, I thought!  Of course, I can't take credit for these ideas, I pride myself on my copying skills.


Master Jedi was reading a letter from Yoda and then teaching the kids how to be jedi's.  This involved lots of running, jumping, somersaulting, and going down the zip-line





Okay, doesn't Charlotte look a little like the Emperor in this picture???  But she is far from an evil genious.  She's perfect--just doesn't like the sun!









Okay!  Better now!  Isn't she cute in her little tutu??





I seriously loved these cupcakes!  We also had Yoda Soda's (lime sherbet and sprite).  Green is Bridger's favorite color, so he was pleased!

And aren't these favor bags the cutest?  My friend Lois cut these out on her Cricut for me--they turned out sooo awesome!

And last but not least, we let the kids loose on a darth vader pinata with their light sabers.  It was fun, Bridger has the cutest friends!  I still remember my Barbie birthday party when i turned 5, hopefully Bridger will do the same:)  Although i do have to say, these parties are so exhausting!  Jeremy and I needed a long nap after everyone went home!
