Highlights from Connor's 4-Year-Old-Darth-Vader-Riding-a-T-Rex Birthday Party

The cake.
And the cupcakes.
And the volcano cups.

The giant Italian sub shaped like the number 4.
Connor's favorite.

Who gives a four year old a knife?

The pin-na-tah. As Connor would say.
Darth.Vader.Riding.A.T-Rex.
Complete with Storm Trooper for lunch.
Oh, and has anyone seen Darth's arm?
It's been missing since after the pin-na-tah was busted.
(But it was intact shortly post-bust.)

This book is already a favorite with both boys.

Lex. Post-nap.
With Johnny. And Lemur.

Pin the skull on the T-Rex Fossil

Karina won.
But I'm 99% certain she could see past the blindfold.
She walked right over and slapped it right in place.

Lounging in the Cozy Coupe.
In the party dress that Connor bought her and made her wear to his party, no less.
Logan is such a good friend!

Playing in the sand with the boys.
Notice Connor's plaid shorts?
They appeared and disappeared and reappeared throughout the party.
We have a love-hate relationship with plaid shorts.

Light saber pinata buster.
Sturdiest pinata ever.
Lex's first whack.
Aaron sliced the darn thing open with his knife...and we still had to rip it apart!

I think it took Connor three, maybe four, tries to blow out all four candles.

Note for future reference:
Dry ice smoke doesn't photograph well (apparently - where is it?!)
and it make candles tricky to light. But it was awesome in real life!
(Those are glow sticks in the volcano cups.)
