It's a Parrrrrty!


On Sunday we celebrated Andrew's birthday with a Pirate themed party up at the Manor House in our neighborhood.  Andrew was super-excited for the party, and I think he really enjoyed having his favorite friends and family there to celebrate with him. 
I had originally planned for there to be a treasure hunt outside for the party, but since the weather had been so rainy all weekend, we had to change things up a bit and held the hunt inside the Manor House in the main room.  It didn't seem to bother the kids at all and they all seemed to really enjoy it!
