YoHo, YoHo, a Pirates Life for ME!!

 Can't believe this little guy is 5yrs old!!! Our Pirate King was super excited to party with all his favorite Wenches and Matey's. We all dresses up in pirate attire then went out side to Walk The Plank.  Pretty sure that most of these scallywags have been naughty enough to need to Walk The Plank at least once in their lives.

 Piracy is all about sea battles...so we lobbed cannon balls in an attempt to sink each others ships!  200 cannons sure go fast with eager pirates!!  Of course, we searched for buried treasure...some nice Pirates left us a few clues to find a Jolley Roger full of candy.  Yum, Yum!!

 Jake couldn't wait to open his presents...and boy did he get a lot of booty!! A Skate board, Legos, Spy gadgets, Nerf guns, Transformers, Sponge Bob punching bag...and more.  Not sure where all this stuff is going to go.  He was so delighted by all his new treasures that his Prayer tonight included thanks for each toy by name, " Thank you for my Skateboard and Shaun White Helmet, My Legos, My Spy Stuff," etc...It was too cute to see and hear him be so excited. There will be no bored kids tomorrow!!

I'm FWEEEY!!!

Sam is offically 3!!! What a big boy!  He got the low-key Lighting McQueen family birthday bash this year.No Fancy McQeen cake ..I ran out of time, but those cupcakes do bare McQueen's racing number 95.(I think I might owe Sam a HUGE party after this year...but that could just be Mommy guilt talking cause Sam seemed thoroughly content with our merriment)   

Big Wheel for the Big Boy...now to keep the other Big Kids off long enough so Sam can ride it.

 

When we brought out this big box earlier in the day...Sam said, "Is that my Happy Birthday?!!"

Can you believe I get to kiss this adorable face everyday ?!!

Jake enduring...until the grandparents showed up for dinner.  He couldn't wait to get the party started.
