In a galaxy far, far away (Portland, Oregon) a

Jedi Padawan was born. After many years (6) of training, he

finally reached his goal of celebrating his big day like a Jedi.

The following is his story.

They began by granting a Jedi with their most prized possession, a light saber.

They showed off their agility by participating in a pod (scooter) race.

They attacked the Death Star (soccer ball pinata painted black). A more experienced Jedi finished it off just before a big storm came in.

The younglings collected their prizes for such a magnificent defeat.

After demonstrating their creativity and ship construction skills (Lego building time) they feasted on cake.

Happy Birthday Tyler!!! And may the Force be with you!
