Landon's Pirate Party

This past week our sweet Landon turned four years old. Our little man is growing up before our eyes. To celebrate the occasion we had a pirate party at our house and invited some of Landon's buddies. My sis in law made some really cute invitations (that have been edited for blog stalker purposes) and the party was on. In one and a half hours we managed to decorate pirate hats, read; "How I became a Pirate" (fabulous book if you've never read it), walk the plank, pop cannon balls, pick up jewels (marbles) with our toes, paint faces, eat pirate cake and pirates booty, open presents, and bust a pinata. Fun was had by all and Landon made some very special memories. Thank you to all our friends and family who made this day so memorable for our little guy. Here are a few pics to commemorate our day of fun.

That is such a cute party! I love pirates and pirate themed things for little boys. That's exactly why Nathan was a pirate for Halloween. Looks like everyone had a lot of fun.

Alisha,
We had so much fun at Landon's pirate party last weekend. Too bad I forgot my camera. I am linking to this post on my blog, though, so that everyone can see how much fun we had!
