May the Fourth Merriment

FORCE-FULL: Thursday was May the Fourth, and for our family, that's akin to a holiday, because it's Star Wars Day! For those who don't know, the 'holiday' happens because May the Fourth sounds like "May the Force ... " of Star Wars fame.)

It just so happened that on that day we were helping host a teacher and staff appreciation luncheon. Naturally, we used a Star Wars theme for that ...
Darth Tater, Frylo Ren and the Spud Trooper stood guard at the start of the baked potato bar.
There were liquid refreshments. ... 
 We had a few fun signs around the room. ...

 And some spaceships, as well!
 The table was set with Star-Warsy items.
And light sabers lined the white board.
We had to have a few cookies, of course.
And vintage Star Wars Thermoses served as flower vases.
Meanwhile, down the hallway, CJ and Annabelle led a Star Wars singalong.
They played Weird Al's "The Saga Begins."

Later that afternoon, the young Rebels caught a transport, and headed to the Safeco Field spaceport.
Sign and stuffie on hand, they hung out in the bullpen for awhile
And then they made their way around the concourse, running into some old friends ... and enemies. 

They made sure to make time to watch the "Hat Trick" puzzle.
 And they even watched some baseball.
All in all, it was an epic day.
