Just a few of the best pictures from Noah's birthday party. They're definitely out of order, but I have yet to figure out how to do a good job posting pictures on blogger. Oh well..
Jared and I used some of the boxes we had already packed to make a treasure ship. I think it turned out pretty well.
See, even big boys love playing pirates!
Uncle Thias as the Dread Pirate Roberts handing out treasure rocks to all the kiddos. I got the idea for the treasure rocks from Family Fun magazine, which is a wonderful idea storehouse. The rocks are made with used coffee grounds, flour, salt, sand, & water. I just picked up a bunch of party favors from Party City and 'buried' them in the rocks. The kids had a great time breaking up the rocks, and we of course had a great time watching them.
The Dread Pirate Roberts! (Yes, we are huge fans of the Princess Bride.) Uncle Thias was such a good sport to dress up for the kids. He did a great job!
He was the cutest big boy pirate ever! And yes, I am biased. What a great and wonderful day!
A huge shout out to Publix for the yummy cake. My plan had been to make his cake, and I found a great one in Family Fun magazine. It was a cute and seemingly simple pirate hat cake. Well, it completely fell apart last night as I was trying to frost it. Let me just say that I had a bit of a come apart. Rach & I went scrambling to Publix this morning before 8 to beg the sweet ladies in the bakery for anything they could come up with. They were so incredibly gracious, and we were able to pick up Noah's cake in plenty of time for his party!
