On Saturday we had a Pirate Party for Isaac and his friends. What a great time we had. We decorated the porch in a pirate theme, complete with a plank to walk up. In the background we had the song from the Pirates of The Caribbean playing to help set the mood.
Chris printed off the big pirate ship picture, and we had a big pirate flag covering the door. It looked awesome and is still up as I hate to take it all down. We were blessed with a really nice sunny, fairly warm day (by february in Oregon standards!)
Our first ship of pirates "walking the plank"!
Here is the band of scallywag pirates that met everyone at the door. Chris's parents were here for the weekend, which was really nice. (Matthew had fallen asleep, so did not join the party until later)
Capt. Isaac was so excited to greet everyone! He talked like a pirate all day (and again yesterday , and today...)
Everyone got their pictures taken on the porch, and most had dressed up in full pirate gear, it was so cute to see them all decked out!
Isaac was happy to have his best friend Cole come. Cole just got a new baby brother on monday and we weren't sure they would venture out for our adventure. We are so glad they did. Welcome Pirate Ethan!!!!!
The kids had a great time playing games, especially musical chairs.....my favorite was Tori who picked a chair and stayed there the whole time!!! Kaetha was our winner, with Zander putting in a good race for 2nd. We also had a pirate ship pinata that was a lot of fun. I have never seen such crazed looks on the kids faces as they beat that thing as hard as they could.
Isaac had been asking for a pirate ship cake for months now as it is on display at the local grocery store. It was the coolest cake! It came complete with pirates to man the crows nest and fire the cannons. He loved it!
Matthew even got in on the fun...here is Master Mathhew and his pirate hair! Argh!!!
We had such a fun time and it was great to hang out with all our good friends. We visited for a long time while the kids hid treasure and played pirates! When everyone left Isaac crashed in about 5 minutes....that was one tired pirate.Thanks to everyone who came and gave presents to Isaac. Our house is overrun with pirates and we are having a great time playing with them!
