It's that time of year....David's birthday is coming up at the end of the month. This year he is in love with all things Star Wars. I never imagined I would know so many factoids about Star Wars, seeing as prior to this year, I had never even watched a whole Star Wars movie. (Thanks to David, James and Michelle(who has helped fill in any missing details) I now have a pretty good idea of what the whole story is about. Don't ask me too many details though as I tend to zone out when I hear words like Qui-Jon and Obi-Won. So, I came up with the idea for making Jedi robes for all of David's friends coming to his birthday party. (Thanks goes out to Art, my new work buddy, for passing along very simple directions for making Jedi robes.) Now I have 10 days left to sew 12 robes and I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. Rebecca M. has offered to help me and I'm going to take her up on it. I think the robes will be a hit. Who can resist a dozen 5 year old Jedis! Here's a picture of David in the prototype robe, Clifford also got one too. If anyone has ideas for games or activities for a Jedi Training Camp, please pass them along. What kind of food would Jedis eat anyways? Where's Claudine when I need her?!

WOW.. the jedi robe is like a full robe with arms and everything (not that I expected any less). By the way, Obi Wan is way cooler than Qui Jon or whatever the other guys name is - not that it really matters :)
I am in complete awe of your talent and drive. What a mom! Your boys are so blessed. We have every Star Wars movie made and my boys have watched them all numerous times. But, I have and probably will never try to take on a task as great as you have.
