Mini Darth Vader

Posing With the Light Saber

We went to a party last night with a few of our college friends that was to be a “lash hoorah” sort of party before Sarah-jenne and I have our babies in a few weeks. The theme was Star Wars so Jonah and I dressed up (Jason’s a slacker)… Jonah was Darth Vader, a costume I picked up the day before at Party City for $6 because of a fluke with their system… guess they’re not used to selling costumes in the off season cause it said “item not for sale” when they rang it up. It was supposed to be $19.99 according to their website, but the manager gave it to me for $5.99! I got a couple of cute pictures of him, but never got a picture of myself with my Jawa costume on. I have one from when I wore it for going to see Episode 3 in theaters, but didn’t get a shot of the pregnant Jawa. Oh well. I think for Halloween this year, we’ll all 4 dress up as Star Wars characters since Jonah will still probably fit in his Vader costume. I just need to get an infant sized Princess Leah costume for our little girl when it gets closer, and Jason needs to pick a star wars costume too.

Trying to Collapse the Light Saber

The snacks were all Star Wars themed too. We made some Princess Leah Garlic Bread Rolls. There were also Chewy Wookie Cookies, Light Saber Taquitos (you could dip them into queso, salsa, or guacamole to make your “light saber” whatever color you wanted hehe), Bobba Fettacunie, Ham Solo, and a Death Star Cookie Cake. We watched episodes 4 & 5 then started playing Munchkin while episode 6 started up before heading home. Jonah was really well behaved the whole night, but it was way past his bedtime when we left. We got him in bed at about 10pm! Poor little guy, so tired, but he had a great time. So did we!

Church Fall Festival

Just a few pics to post from our trip to the church’s fall festival tonight. We didn’t go REAL trick or treating, this year, because Jason had class and I didn’t feel comfortable taking him by myself to wander around door to door.

Happy Halloween!!!

Jonah as a Vampire (minus hair and makeup) Halloween 2008

We had a coupon to get a free 5×7 print from Kiddie Kandids, so we used it today to get a portrait of Jonah in his vampire costume. I plan on using the black hair spray and gel on him tonight for our fall festival and maybe even a little bit of facepaint, but since he still needed to take a nap, I decided not to put that stuff on him yet. Came out pretty cute though, I think, even though one side of his collar fell down and his jeans were high watered! He LOVED the pumpkins!
