Five years ago....

in a galaxy not so far away, a Jedi was born, and the force was strong with him.

That Jedi was me!!!  I just turned FIVE, and to celebrate, I had a STAR WARS party.  Star Wars is my favorite.  I had a bunch of friends over.  We spent time playing with my toys,

but we also watched little bits of Star Wars right before we did games and stuff.  Everyone loved Star Wars.

We played a game where we were in teams and had to dress one person up in toilet paper to make them look like a storm trooper.  It was actually kind of hard because the toilet paper kept falling off.

But after the game, we got to throw the toilet paper EVERYWHERE, and that was really fun.

We also had a Darth Vader pinata.  I got to hit it, and one of my friends got to hit before the bottom fell off and the candy spilled out.  But we didn't care.  We were all just really excited to get candy!

Another game was pin the X-Wing on the Death Star.  (Dad drew a pretty good Death Star, don't you think?)  I got kind of close.

But it was really fun to see other kids pin their X-Wing way far away from the Death Star!

I got lots of fun presents from my friends.

And my cake was awesome!  It had Ewoks and a two-legged walker and a Storm Trooper on a speeder bike!

The two-legged walker was balanced really carefully on the cake, so when I blew out my candles, I blew softly so I wouldn't knock over the walker.

I had my party a few days before my real birthday.  On my real birthday I really turned five.

And I got to have a McDonald's Happy Meal for dinner.

I got more fun presents from my family.

And then I got to blow out another candle on some chocolate cake.

It was the best birthday EVER!!!

When I turn six, I'm going to have a mailman birthday party.  And when I turn seven, I'm going to have a construction birthday party.  And when I turn eight, I'm going to have a ninja birthday party.  Mom just says, We'll see. 

Can you believe I'm FIVE???!!!!!  AWESOME!
