Hudson's Jedi Training Birthday Party!

8 is a big deal. I know this because I have been told this MANY times over the past few months. Ha! We went through a lot of different party ideas before we landed on one that satisfied the birthday boy....a Jedi Training party!

We had been planning it for a while and were VERY worried when the stomach bug invaded us (I do not mess around with the stomach bug). Once we were sure it was contained and sure it wouldn't spread, we continued on with plans. It was fun figuring out different Star Wars snacks to serve:














The boys played basketball while we waited on everyone to get there:


Then it was time for a guessing game! We put different characters on the boys backs and they had to ask questions to try to figure out who they were:










Then it was time for the training. We set up different stations for them to complete. Corn hole, they had to kick the soccer ball at Darth Vader, complete an obstacle course, learn light saber techniques and shoot Nerf bullets at a storm trooper.















Little sister was not so impressed by all the Star Wars shenanigans:




After a snack break:


It was time for silly string!


Fin was not so sure either:





Then it was time to defeat Darth once and for all:



This part Harper was SUPER excited for...she had been wanting to take on the piƱata all week!

Then it was cake time!






All in all it was a very successful party!! I think Hudson and his friends had a blast! I know Trent and I had a blast planning it. I can't believe my baby is 8!!!
