Ahoy Matey Taylor turned 5!

Yo Ho Ho! My sweet little tater turned 5! I can't believe my tiny little 6 pound almost 5 weeks early baby has grown into this amazing little girl. She has the biggest, sweetest, most creative heart of any 5 year old. I know I am little biased but she blows me away all the time.

Taylor has been into pirates for over a year now so when we started talking about her birthday party pirates immediately came up. So a pirate party we threw!


We started with pirates, pirate booty, pegs legs (pretzels), and gold coins!



Add in a fully decked out pirate!


Down to her shoes-


And we have the starts of a successful party!

When Taylor's fellow pirates arrived they got bandanas, tattoos, and did some coloring in the pirate coloring books!


First up was a game of "Walk the Plank"


Followed by "Pin the Parrot on the Pirate"


Next was the treasure chest pinata!


Let me tell you some of these kids have some really creative ways of hitting!


Collecting their loot!


There was a clue that fell out of the pinata that started us on a treasure hunt.

First stop was to find the pirate's extra peg legs (pirate pencils)
All the little pirates listening to the next clue.


which lead us to their own pirate treasure journal


And finally to the big treasure chest filled with swords!
(You can see the chest under the playground equipment)


Finally it was time for some birthday cupcakes!


Everyone refueling for


some swords fights and good-byes!


After cleaning up we headed home to open presents.


It was a really fun Pirate Party.

Happy 5th Birthday Taylor!!!

Sorry for the picture overload.
