Star Wars Party: The Pinata...

 I wrote here about the wonderful pinata that Grandma and Daddy made.  It was the hit of the party!  And although I didn't want to see it smashed, I'm glad the kids all had so much fun doing it...

Daddy hung the pinata up from a tree and had  the kids go at it.

Miss A got to go first, since it was her birthday.

 Not a lot of damage done to the Death Star by her...

 Master A went next.  He got some good hits in.  I was actually worried that the Death Star wouldn't make it through everybody.  But Grandma had made it extra tough, and Daddy did a good job of keeping it away from the hard hitters.

 Master M came next...

 Then Miss J, who did a remarkable job of dressing like Princess Leia.

Then Miss K,

Good form!  I'm thinking she is a baseball player in the making...

Miss M,

 All the kids were good about taking turns.

 Master C,

 

Then Miss M got a turn, she didn't really get the concept...

 Miss L

 Master C,

Then we gave the light saber to the big hitter, Master N, who inflicted severe damage, and made the string fall out.

 So Daddy pitched it to K to finish it off.  (When I asked Miss A who she wanted to invite to her party, she specifically asked for K and M, two of our (grown-up) friends.  They were good enough sports to come.)

 

 Nice hit.

 Even then, Daddy had to help rip it open. 

 

 Rest in peace Death Star...
