Celebrating Micah!

We were supposed to have a party at Blackberry Farm today for Micah's 5th birthday.  And at 6am this morning, I emailed the event coordinator and canceled our reservation due to 100% chance of rain in the forecast at the time of our party.  So what do you do when you cancel your outdoor party 5 hours before it's supposed to happen due to inclement weather (for the second bday party this year)??? Hit up Party City and buy out all their pirate stuff and throw the most impromptu pirate party ever!

Christian burning clues to our treasure hunt at 6:30am.

Me home from my trip to Party City at 8:30am.

Ready and set for the pirate party at 11:30am!

Pin the gold dabloon on the treasure chest.

Reid sure to not miss out on big brother's party!

Christian heading up the best treasure hunt ever.  Seriously, he did a great job and the kids loved it!!!

Really, what more needs to be said here?

Love this pic!!

The infamous treasure map.

Sweet baby girl!!

Laura kinda agreed to watch Gemma during our party so it was one less thing for us to stress about :)

Looking for the last clue...

Treasure!!!!

Look at my big birthday boy.  Love this picutre!!

Micah and his friends.  Dash, Alex, Luke, Jackson and Jacob on top.  Reid, Gemma, Micah, Finn (in place of Harry) and Mia on bottom.

Pinata time.  Alex tried hard.

So did Christian.  

And finally successful with the hammer!

Picking up all the loot.

Enjoying one of his bday gifts!

"Cheese."

Despite less than perfect conditions for Micah's outdoor party, and a plan B that had to go in to full effect, Christian and I pulled off a pretty successful pirate party in a matter of 5 hours!  Micah loved it, which was all that mattered, and we had a great time celebrating our bit 5 year old today :)
