We had a pirate themed party. My new favorite way to make cakes is to buy a toy and stick it on the cake. I generally like to take the cake out of the pan, but I forgot to do so while my cake was still warm. It was too sticky to get out of the pan once it was cold. Oh well....
I made cupcakes because I am a firm believer that they make life super easy at a kid's party. I made the cake from scratch, but I didn't like the recipe. I learned that when making cupcakes, that you really need to watch the time. They are much more sensitive then cakes. I think I overcooked them, but my guests were all too polite to say anything.
This is my girlfriend from work and the most serious but chill baby ever.
Here is a little brother and sister pirate action. Just about every picture where you see the boy, you will see his sister following closely. It is so sweet.
We had a scavenger hunt to look for the piñata. In hind site, the bigger kids liked it more. At about clue 3 the little kids got sidetracked, but the big kids kept going.
The goal of the hunt was to find the pirate treasure. They found it before I could get to them.
Overview of some guests. I want to be better at taking pictures of people. You can kind of see the hats the kids made as a craft sitting on the table.
BabyP refused to go play with the other kids until this little girl got there. She is one of two girls in his class. Don't let those chubby cheeks and halo of curls fool you, she can hold her own with even the rowdiest of boys. I am really proud of her.
Sweet girl watching her classmate. This boy cracks me up. You may remember him from Mr. T's Party.
And a little bit more just because we can't enough.

Oh look... I showed up at the party.

The party looks like it was a blast. Isn't it funny how you can put a sword in a boy's little fist and suddenly he's a pirate!! Aaargh Matey.
