May the Fifth be with you

What?  I have 2 sweet FIVE Year Olds!  May the force be with us... we need it!  Karsten was stoked for his Star Wars birthday party.  What does a mom do who has never seen Star Wars?  Google a Lot about it and hit up pinterest ideas.  We ended up with some Luke Skywater, Hans Rolos, Storm Trooper Salsa, Wookie Cookies, Ewok Treats and some Droid Dip with Vader Veggies.  Not bad for a mom who needs to catch up on her movies!

A summer birthday is the Best!  OK, I'm biased since my birthday is 10 days earlier, but come on... who else can have this awesome waterslide at their birthday party?  It was a Huge Hit!  I'm pretty sure Mady was never going to come out (unless dragged)

Karsten was super excited about everyone, especially seeing Mason again.  They sure Love each other!  We might have had some issues lighting the candles, but the ice cream cake sure was delish!

Thank you to all who were able to join us for this big celebration.  Karsten even had a couple of friends from school come over!  Both girls... what a lucky guy to have found such sweet friends at school.  Age four was a fun year for Karsten, but as Yoda says... "Age 5, He Is!"  Happy Birthday, my young Padawan!

We of course also had a family party at where else?... Chuck E Cheese.  Amy's Favorite!
