Tommy turned 5! He was pretty spoiled this year. He got a big party & a trip to Utah to ride a "real" train. Here he is holding his treat we took to preschool. It's a rice crispy treat we made look like a cupcake.
Here is his birthday table.
A close up of his cake. I thought this would be so simple, but it was not!!
He loved it though & that is what matters!!
Pictures of our decorations:
"fish & chips" ...toddler version!
Where the pirate wars took place in our basement, Captain Hook's ship is the black one & the big one, Bucky (Jake's ship), is the big brown one.
When the kids arrived they painted a parrot like Skully (Jake's pirate). It was super messy & crazy. Don't think I'll do that again!
Here is all of the crazy pirate kids. Captain Hook appeared & told the kids he stole their treasure & if they wanted it back then they'd have to get through his traps.
First captain hook threw a cannon ball into their ship & they had to pop it.
Next, they had to walk the plank. Tommy played with the plank way more before & after the party than he did at the party.
Then they had a million balls they tried to throw in Captain Hook's ship to make his ship sink. This is when all chaos broke out. I hate chaos, but Tommy was having a ball being super crazy!
Their last clue was to find the sea tunnel, climb through it, & find their treasure at the end.
They had a list of things to find so it was all equal & fair. Thank goodness it was a nice warm day in December!!
Pirate Whitney's treasure she found
After the games, we had cake & ice cream.
Tommy got lots of "Jake & the Neverland Pirate" toys. I was glad their was no doubles!
He had a blast & is already plotting his next birthday party!
