Ahoy There Matey's

Chase asked to have a pirate party. It was a lot of fun to prepare for. I found bandanna’s for all the kids to wear. We got them eye patches and I found foam swords. I made a pinata and painted it black and painted a skull and crossbones on it.

On the day of the party I spray painted a skull and crossbones on a black cloth and hung it up on the play set. We made that the pirate ship. Chase had six friends come to his party. I put together a treasure hunt. I came up with six clues and then buried the treasure in the sandbox. I also had the kids walk the plank across the kiddie pool. After cake and ice cream, everyone got their swim suits on and went on the new Slip and Slide that Eric and I got him. The two hours flew by. After the party Chase said to me, “Mom, my party was a lot of fun. Thank you.” All the preparation and work was worth it. I know Chase will have that as a great memory.
