May the Fource Be With You

Guess who posed for the picture on the cake?
Yup, the same guy who is blowing out Darth Vader's light saber

Four Jedi masters get into some serious cake eating.
May the Force be with you always, Cooper. You are our favorite 4-year old Jedi!!!

Darth Vader, What a Pinata-Head!

OK, now we've made it all the way to December. Must be time for a certain 4-year old's second birthday bash.
Speaking of bashing, Max took the first turn and gave Darth a good dent.
Next, Addie got to take a swipe at Lord Vader.

And then Carter struck a mighty blow for the Rebel force.


And, finally, young Skywalker was able to work his way into Vader's brain and he finished the job. The evil figurehead of the Empire lost his head and spilled his guts when faced with the skills of a superior Jedi.


The Rebels collect the spoils of war...






Say Cheese

Cheese? Did someone say cheese? Oh, there's some on your chin, probably left over from lunch. Hey, if you're not gonna finish your lunch, I will...

Sleeping Styles

As a sort of tribute to Uncle Kev and Uncle Steve, we present two examples of sleeping styles employed by various children during naptime. Sleep analysts, let us know what you think.
Count Dracula settles in for a daytime snooze.

Fun At The Park

While in Atlanta for Thanksgiving, we met up with Laura, Bob and Travis at a park near their house. As you can see, a good time was had by all.

Birthday Party... Star Wars Style

When asked what kind of birthday party he wanted when he turned 4, CJB didn't hesitate for a second - Star Wars!!!
At the first of two birthday parties, this one in Atlanta, Grandma Jean showed off her Cake Boss skills with an R2D2 cake that George Lucas would be proud of.

Yes, that is Darth Vader holding a light saber candle...

Birthday in Atlanta

Having a birthday just before Christmas doesn't necessarily mean that you miss out on anything. For one 4-year old, that just means that his birthday celebration begins at Thanksgiving and continues for almost a month.
Showing Uncle Kev how it's done.

Nolan got to hang out with Princess Leia


Stormtroopers are excellent bowlers.
Note: Yes, we are aware that he's actually a Clone Trooper, but this Trooper hasn't seen those sub-par movies yet - just the originals.









Thanksgiving/Santa in ATL

Per tradition, the family headed down to Atlanta for Thanksgiving.
Another tradition - riding the Pink Pig at Macy's

And, of course, a visit with Santa...

Halloween Breakfast Buddy

No, Bacchus hasn't been replaced with a new Breakfast Buddy, but Cooper did discover a new friend for the fall season.

Halloween Blast-Off!

The boys and Addie had a great time playing on the Space Shuttle for Halloween!
