Happy Birthday Jacob (my son)!

[iceman]

It's my son Jacob's birthday today, he turned 8!

He got lots of Star Wars stuff (his obsession at the moment :)) - star wars lego, a new lightsabre (it makes sounds and lights up), more lego :)

His party is tomorrow, should be good fun - 4 other kids here playing star wars games, lego star wars on the X-Box, a pinata made to look like Darth Vader, etc :)

8 years old! Wow, how time flies.

I guess you could say 8 years ago today, my life changed forever!

Let me be the first to wish you a Very Happy Birthday Jacob and I hope you have a wonderful day. Star Wars, great, a fellow after my own heart.

go for it Jacob.............Dad will give you anything!!!!!

but mate you must learn to negotiate hard when dad starts trying to make you want astro stuff that is really for him................he is just trying to con mum!!!

"dad you want me ask mum for a c14 for my next birthday, then the latest holden commodore on my 16th birthday will be very nice............plus 50,000 hutchinsons shares!!!"

Happy Birthday Jacob, tell dad you want his full attention... ALL DAY....:D

. . . AND ALL NIGHT.

Happy birthday, Jacob (If your Dad allows you to read this).

It's funny really, I didn't pick your dad as a Star Wars type as I've always thought of him as a Trekkie - more a Battle Star Galactica than a Millennium Falcon.

So long as you had a beam on your dial on your birthday I reckon I'd be correct. Enjoy being eight, Jacob, I figure you'll love it.

Happy Birthday Jake (Do they call you Jake or Jacob?), 8 is a great age, I've been 8 almost seven times, it just keeps getting better all the time :thumbsup:

Enjoy your Birthday, have a big slice of cake for me and make sure you blow all the candles out in one go and get a special wish :D

Thanks for your wishes guys, we had a great weekend.

Saturday was his birthday, so lots of presents and lego building, lunch with the grandparents, then more lego building.

Yesterday was his party, 4 friends over - all dressed as darth vader. Lots of light sabre battles, a jedi training obstacle course, a pinata made to look like darth maul (which they subsequently bashed to bits :)) and a bit of Return of the Jedi to finish. A good weekend!
