I receive 5 days vacation after 1 year at this job. If I put my 2 week notice in tomorrow, then my last day will fall directly on my 1 year date. But I don't know if they will pay me the 5 days. If I take the vacation then put in my notice, it will only be a 3 day notice. Also I'm afraid if I put my notice in tomorrow, then they will just let me go and I'll miss out on my vacation all together.

Ask them or carefully read the employment manual for details. Honosty is important.
I suspect you need to work through the first day of your second year to qualify for the added vacation time. Then put in your two week notice, one of which can be consumed while on vacation if you like. Just remember to show up for work on your last day.
Make certain they pay you any remaining vacation time. Some companies to not pay it out as cash if you quit.
Anything less than 2 weeks notice is unprofessional.

At my company it doesn't matter how much vacation you get for your year. You still have to work so many hours to recieve your hours of vacation pay. If you leave at day 1 of your new year, you get nada. If you leave at 6 months into the year you get half your allotted vacation. If you've used more than you actually earned you owe them money.
I'd give your 2 week notice and work it out. If you're owed vacation pay you'll get it. Think on it as a bonus.

If your employment agreement states you will receive five (5) days vacation after one year and you leave the company less than one year you will not receive that vacation time. If they keep you beyond the one year mark then you will receive that vacation time.
Check to see if your vacation time is banked or accrued. If it is banked you will get 5 days on the 1 year mark. If it is accrued you will start receiving 3.33 hours of vacation per month, after your one year anniversary.
If you give notice before the one year mark you may run the risk of being let go prior to your one year anniversary. My advice will be to wait until your one year mark and then give notice. You worked hard all year. Get rewarded for your efforts.
BTW--Anything less than 2 weeks notice is not professional and could lead to a less than favorable reference.

In the time that you have already been at your job, you have been earning vacation (that's why you can take it after your anniversery). You should recieve the 5 days (or very close to it) of vacation as a buyout with your last paycheck. At my last job, there was a girl that quit after 7 months and she got a percentage of the vacation she was to get on her 1 year anniversery.

They have to pay you the vacation that you earned. Put in your 2 weeks and leave with a great reference.

Legally they have to pay you for the week's vacation, but if you have nothing in writing stating that you have a weeks' paid vacation coming to you, you're SOL unless the company admits to it. I worked for an electrical textbook publisher who, after firing me for some BS reason, lied and claimed they never gave me a paid vacation, in order to not have to pay it to me after I took them to the state for not paying me my final check and vacation. Since I had nothing in writing backing me up, the state sided with the employeer.

put in your 2 week notice after your 1 year anniversary.

Can you postpone your resignation a week? 3 day's notice is generally NOT something that your employer (or your subsequent employers!) will look with favor on.
