Grant's 3rd Birthday- Pirate Party! September 10, 2011


Grant wanted a pirate birthday celebration, but I was up for low-key. Remember, I fake it as much as I can in pregnancy, but feel sick about 24/7, especially for the first 6 months, so asked what he thought about a family party. He was game. Thank you to my friend Maria, for supplying the themed party supplies (left-over from her son's party, but also exactly what Grant would like.
 
Grant was in his pjs and pirate gear, even at breakfast time! Long before the party! He is so fun!

Jaclyn, Thomas, and Kailynn brought Grant a really cool batman flashlight and awesome homemade pirate birthday cards.

Christian, Grant, and Danny spent the morning assembling the boys' new bunk bed! So exciting!

Grant was excited enough that he didn't seem one bit sad to see the crib go up into the attic.

After the bunk bed was ready it was lunch time/ party time! We had pizza, fruit, and veggies for lunch then went outside for games.

We played a toss the golden coin game!



Then, we went on a treasure hunt!



X marks the spot!



Grant found some treasure!
 Then we went in for cupcakes- V helped me with them!

Birthday boy made a wish, blew out the candles,

and found a chocolate gold coin in his cupcake!

Victoria helped her brothers apply pirate sweet tatoos

Then, they all had fun with the Cars play dough.

Nice work, Danny! That night the boys got to sleep in their cool new bed! Happy birthday, precious 3 year old!
