The Rose Family

This year, Matthew decided he wanted a birthday party that was all about Legos and Star Wars. So he invited some of his friends over to a Lego Star Wars birthday party. Oh was it so fun! We purchased a big pack of various lego pieces and divvied them up for the eight boys to make their space ships. They got to take home their creations. Dad also went out on the driveway with lots of chalk and drew pictures of the Death Star, various Tie Fighters and the faces of Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine and Darth Maul. They got to throw water balloons and take out their targets for the good side. To top it all off, mom had the brilliant idea to buy foam swimming noodles and turn them into light sabers. I think that one was the biggest hit with a jedi battle ensuing on our front lawn for about 15 minutes. Needless to say, the kids had a huge blast.
