Millennium…. what?

By , May 4, 2016 6:16 am

I was pretty excited to see my calendar indicated the most important holiday of the year…

160503SWDay

Ha. Of course it does. It’s a Star Wars calendar (from the Dollar Spot at Tarjayjay – score!).

I don’t have much planned for Star Wars Day! I do have my Millennium Falcon shirt on. Maybe today will be the day I finally buy The Force Awakens? I know, I know. It’s a shame I STILL don’t have it.

Oh gosh, I have to share the cutest thing – while discussing Star Wars with Luca during our Dallas trip, we found out he has a unique way of pronouncing “Millennium Falcon.”

One of our presents for Luca was this Hot Wheels Death Star case that came with an X-Wing, a Y-Wing, a TIE fighter, and the Millennium Falcon*. I think we’d actually discovered his unique take on the name before he opened his gift, but playing with the toy prompted this conversation:

“Luca, say ‘Millennium.'”

“Millennium!”

“Luca, say ‘Falcon.'”

“Falcon!”

“Luca, how do you say the name of Han Solo’s ship, the Millennium Falcon?”

“Millennium Balcony!”

Ha ha, love it. He’s too cute.

May the fourth be with you!

*Luca thought it was the Hot Wheels Millennium Falcon he already has, but alas – he has the one from The Force Awakens with the rectangular satellite and this was the one from Return of the Jedi with the circular satellite. Phew. I also explained the difference between his black TIE Fighter and the gray one we got him.

    I love that calendar! I think we might try to check out some of the special features on the Force Awakens Blu Ray this evening to celebrate 🙂

    I love kid Star Wars talk! Leila cannot remember Kylo Ren’s name and always calls him Dark Raven. It’s now our ongoing family joke because it is SO frustrating to her obsessed brother. You’re the best “auntie” to impart all of your knowledge onto Luca.

      Dark Raven?! That is so funny and random! LOL!!!!!

      Hee hee, I love sharing this useless knowledge with Luca! This morning, he called Han Solo “Hans Solo.” LOLOLOLOL. It’s so cute!

    My social media feed is full of Star Wars stuff today. I don’t know if I’ll watch any of the movies, but I did watch the Force Awakens when I bought it a few weeks ago. Does that count?

  4. Haha you were the first person I thought of when I realized today is May 4! I hope you find a good way to celebrate!

    Luca is such a cutie! I was thinking of you yesterday…

    Ha,that is cute! Does Luca like “Star Wars” because of you and Steven? Do Gina and her husband like it as much as you do?

    Did you end up buying “The Force Awakens?”

    • kilax says:

      I think he actually likes it cause his cousin introduced him! Then when he found out I liked it too, he knew he could talk to me about it 🙂 Gina and Steve know nada about it 🙂

      Not yet! AHHH!!!! I AM HORRIBLE!

    Wait… you are posting a Star Wars day blog post and still haven’t got The Force Awakens? This is a true dichotomy on galactic levels.

    • kilax says:

      It is! 🙁 I want to get it when Steven and I are together at the store so he can tell me which version to get, but we haven’t been shopping together! I need to just ask him and get it! 🙂
