Ahoy! Happy Birthday to Ye Landlubber!
Five turned the next number on the age scale.
And so the pirates visited once again to create havoc.
The pirates guarded the plates and cups...
...the drinks and chips...
...the cake had its own thing going on...
For his birthday, Five wanted lots of treats. He got to choose the menu.
For dessert, he wanted two kinds of cookies, rainbow sherbet ice cream, chocolate cupcakes, and a green cake that he could decorate with sugar decor.
His wish was granted...
The pirates threw cannonballs all over the place...and left pirate swords for the swashbucklers.
They also stole the treasure chest full of yummy loot. But, they were nice enough to leave clues for the kids and give them a sporting chance to get the treasure back.
Jake and some pirates landed in port for the soiree. Who knew Jake was such a party animal?
Oh yeah. Look at that grin. He is ready to get down!
The pirates made long distance phone calls on the haunted phone without asking.
Several pirates and two ferocious sharks guarded the spoiled little boy's presents.
The cupcakes - pre-Five's decorating...
The pirates recruited them young this time...
Just before Five attacked...
Let the decorating begin...
Voila!
Five chose orange chicken, rice, chips, asparagus, and salad for dinner.
Grandma and Grandpa were able to attend.
After dinner, the kids followed the pirate clues to reclaim the stuffed treasure chest.
Then it was time for cake!
I hope he wished that all this spoiling wouldn't turn him rotten...
Happy Birthday, Five!
Trunk or Treat
Every year we participate in a trunk or treat. Which is a misnomer to me. I think it should be called trunk and treat. It is not an 'or', it is an 'and'. There is a trunk and there is a treat.
But that is neither here nor there.
We went. It was fun.
Baby didn't want to keep his Jack Skellington hat on...at first.
Our neighbor friend, L, learned the delight of a trunk or treat a few years ago...lots and lots of candy for very little work.
He looks forward to joining us every time. And I don't blame him a bit.
Husband dressed up as an In-n-Out associate. That brought back memories for me. I still have dreams of working the salad bar (where you put the burgers together) and it has been at least fifteen years. He looked very handsome to me.
I love my dress! Don't mind the petticoats though. I couldn't keep it on my waist. Whoops.
A Duck and Charlie Brown
If it looks like a duck...quack, quack.
Can you see Baby wandering around? He kept picking up the pumpkins and chucking them. He is a pumpkin chucker. Has been all month.
Looking dapper...
Eating Dinner
Pizza, Salads, and Fruit
Wrong end, Buddy.
An In-n-Out guy eating pizza...
I swear it's not blood...
Out for his first walk-around trick or treating experience.
Me and A Pumpkin
She also happens to be a pumpkin chucker.
Which seems strange for a pumpkin to be...
Baby finally figured out what he was collecting all night. You mean, this is candy I get to eat?!
A friend took a picture of my dress all spread out. So pretty...
And a shot of baby eating another candy...
Yep. I think he definitely figured it out.
