Here is the cake that Steve created. The Millenium Falcon. If he decides not to be a Dr. he could decorate cakes.

The Jedi Trainer with a Darth Maul Light Saber and Greg.
Let the Training begin. Steve made all of these light sabors out of PVC pipe and the foam covering and colored Duct tape.

Well, here it is April 1st. 5 years ago Jacob joined our family in Houston, Texas. I can't believe it has been that long. He is such a funny little boy and he melts my heart.---even when he is naughty. I can't get over his smile and that dimple in his chin. He doesn't love when I kiss him, but he will let me give him a dimple kiss. (kiss him right on his dimple). When ever he sees a flower, he picks it and comes and hands it to me. I have received more flowers from my son than I have from any other person---(Steve's not a big flower husband.) OK--most of Jacob's flowers he gives me are Dandelions from the grass---but I get atleast 4-5 a day when they are "blooming". Then he picks flowers from the library or really anywhere he sees one. I hope he keeps that up--well not destroying other gardens, but the flower giving.
Steve had a lot of free time this month, so the last week of it, he channeled his energy into planning Jacob's birthday party. PARTY IT WAS!!!! I think the rule in our family will be that they can only have a friend party every 5 years---by then they won't think we will have to "top" that one. Especially knowing that Steve will never have that much time off to plan it, and knowing that I am not creative enough nor have the time to plan and carry it out.

Those cakes were WOW! I can't believe it has been 5 years either! I am impressed you got a blog entry up and Claire isn't that old. Read is 10 months and blog entrys may continue to wait and wait.
Happy Birthday Jacob!! What a fun party! Hope you had lots of fun....can't wait to see you soon! We love you!
What a fun party--Coleman will be so excited to see all of these pictures. If only you lived closer, I'm sure he and Jacob would be best buddies. Those kids could eat and breathe Star Wars and still want more. I'm so impressed with the cake and tunics and light sabers! Happy birthday Jacob!
I did a Star Wars Party for Ammon last fall. It was so great. I found a pinata shaped like Darth Vader and the kids beat it with a light saber. I mean they beat it to a pulp. I'v never seen girls with so much agression. Even my baby runs around the house pretending to use the force on people. Good times.
Steve is right up there with Brian McCune in the cake decorating and party planning. I'm sure Jacob will remember it forever so it was well worth it.
i tried so hard to find Star wars stickers to send him -- I thought I had some! sorry he got mickey mouse instead.
Amazing cake!!
I didn't realize Jacob was an April 1st baby-next time I see him, I'll let him know we have something in common:) That cake is amazing...what a lucky boy.
SOOOO impressive! What a fun fun party! Way to go Steve--the party planner extraordinaire. Happy birthday to Jacob!
Wow! That looks like a super fun birthday party! What an awesome cake too! I can't wait to throw fun themed bday parties!
