Trevor and Spencer with their own pirate chest full of loot!

The kids had to walk along the plank blind folded. As they walked the two people on the side crouched lower and lower. The person walking the plank felt like they were getting higher and higher and soon they would fall off the plank. It was so funny. The kids really thought that they were way up in the air.

The pirates got to "swab the deck".

Uncle Scott and Kevin were in Pirates in charge.

The Pirates had to try and sink each others boats with cannon balls.

Each had to "walk the plank" by jumping off the deck onto the trampoline.

Everyone came with their own pirate costume (made by grandma's and me).

Each pirate was instructed on a few basics of how to be a pirate and how to make it throught the "Pirate Boot Camp".

First... No Girls Allowed! Any girls caught on deck would have to walk the plank! Beards will do the trick... and maybe a mean pirate name. Evil Skull Avery, Slashin Tooth Bailyn and Peg Leg Julia.

All Pirates were given their rightful pirate names. Evil Eye Spencer, Swashy Bandit Beck and Captain Slashin Trevor.

Annual Pictures

It is a tradition that I take the boys every year and have their pictures made professionally. I figure that this is the least that I can do since I am not good at taking a lot of my own pictures (and seeing that my camera is broken now). I have decided to wait until the beginning of the summer to have the pictures made next year. They are always getting over some illness when I take their pictures in the early Spring, therefore they have dark rings under their eyes and are cranky with the photographer. NEVER AGAIN! I wasn't totally pleased with these pictures, but at least I got a good deal on the package that I bought.
