Pirate Party

On Saturday the 6th we had a birthday party for Calvin here at the house. Calvin requested a Pirate Party, so a Pirate Party he got! Here is the birthday boy before the guests arrived.

Lewis and Abby were the first to arrive, and they even dressed the part!

We had lots of Pirate themed games that we played. We played Hook the Pretzel

And Musical Islands

Then we played Sink the Ship where they had to throw their "cannon balls" into the other teams ship to "sink" it.

After the games came one of the highlights of the party...the silly string fight!

As you can see even the adults got into the fun!

After the silly string mania we did a treasure hunt.

The kids had a blast and went crazy when they finally found their treasure.
