pirate party

I have a friend here in Oman who throws great birthday parties. The kind where the entire family is invited, the parents can relax and chat while the kids play, and they always go home with awesome, imaginative favors. This morning we were invited to a pirate party that she threw for her daughter’s birthday.

Two great things about this party: it was held at the club near our house (so we could walk) and it was a breakfast party. We got up, got dressed, and walked over and ate pancakes, bacon, hash browns, omelets, and fruit. 


The girls had body art pens and set up a tattoo station


Camille was a willing tatoo-ee 

as was Carter


and Nana

Blackbeard’s cousin: the lesser known pirate “Whitebeard.”


Camille loves playing with the big girls. And she loves slides.
