*Cap'n Hunter M'Hearties Birthday Party*

Hunter had SUCH a fun Pirate Birthday Party. When everyone got here I gathered all of the kids on the grass and told them we were going on a Treasure Hunt. I handed Cap'n Hunter the map with his first clue and we were off.

There first clue was to go to the "Captains Deck" to receive their pirate names. We had there names on a bag that they were to carry throughout the hunt.
The next clue steered them across the "Green Sea" to the "Island of Dirt" where they received their official Pirate Gear.(a head wrap)

The next clue took them to the "Yellow Sails" where they received their eye patches.
The next clue took them to "Walk the Plank" when they crossed they made telescopes to help the locate the treasure.



The next clue told them to "Look towards the Horizon" to find the treasure.

They found the treasure and each got a turn to knock it down.
I love this picture because Uncle Mike is explaining to Hunter that he has 3 hits but Hunter can't see his fingers:)
Wyatt had the winning shot.





All of the "Mikel's"
I think we all felt like little Gavin at the end of this party...TIRED!
Thanks to all the friends and family that came...we had a blast!:)
