Boys Pirate Birthday Party

{The invitation, message in a bottle}

We hoisted the sails today for a pirate party at our house for Wally and Will. It was a lot of work, but a lot of fun! Thank you to all who came, I could not believe how thoughtful and generous everyone was. I found the ideas that I used on a blog of a very cute and creative girl from Provo named Britnee, here, who threw a pirate party for her son and made all her amazing ideas and scrapbook designs available! But I must say, as happy as I was about how my party turned out, my knock-offs were not as good as the original. I was just grateful for a jumping off point! So, shiver me timbers, here are some pictures.

I was busy playing host, and mom, and photographer, and I am super embarrassed to say that my shots were awful! I was just grabbing my camera and shooting to try to catch anything in the melee, and the settings were off. But oh, well, it is the memory that counts right?
