"That's my happy birthday party!"

Madeline LOVES Jake & the Neverland Pirates, so that meant a super fun pirate bash for us this year!! She walked around for a couple weeks, looking at every single thing I was making, saying "That's my happy birthday party!". 

Here's my lame attempt at trying to catch some pictures of the decor and food. You know how you want to share it all and you completely forget to take pictures of most of it? No? Well that's what happened to me...so I guess it's pregnancy brain.

Of course the baby has to participate! 

Madeline made sure that everyone knew there were swords!

Time to become a pirate!

Joshua was an awesome help with streamers

The birthday girls chair

hehe

dessert table ... perhaps I should have taken one when it was actually set up

Tattoos & Pin the eye patch on

Fire pit! 

Something for the kids to draw on in the garage....but it was too cold

Treasure chests!

Awesome pirate ship my dad made!

On the menu:

Sword kabobs (Cheese & Pepperoni)

Ships & dip

Jewels (grapes)

Shipwreck sandwiches

Golden nuggets (chik fil a)

Grilled parrot (wings)

Seaweed Salad

Fish & Chips (wink, wink)

Pirate booty

Canon balls (meatballs)

Chicken salad sandwiches (thanks, Me-mom!)

It was a lot of fun watching every one read the food names.

And my favorite.....
