May the 4th

May the 4th be With You

I live in a house full of Star Wars fans, therefore, by default, I am a Star Wars fan. We have been to Disney for Star Wars Weekends (on May the 4th even). We have been at all of the new movies on release day, we pre order all of the DVD’s and digital content, we have toys, comic books, real books…we eat Star Wars themed food on May the 4th…you get the idea.

My kids truly believe May the 4th is a real holiday, and they ~~want~~ expect some Star Wars themed treat. With that in mind, I went to Walmart. I needed to get Jell-O for my little guy (he is having a procedure done next week, and Jell-O is on the menu), so when I saw the Star Wars Jell-O, I knew I had to buy it. Also, for the record, I am really really really bad at making Jell-O in a mold…I try, but it NEVER comes out right.

I also picked up some temporary tattoos and pencil kits in the Dollar Spot at Target, and I thought I would be good to go…until the kids asked if we got anything for their cousins for May the 4th. Seriously, it was a discussion at my house. I couldn’t just throw Star Wars goodies at the kids though, so I made a fun little May The 4th Be With You tags for their goodies.
