I made a cute invite. As always, I print them at Costco using the blank card template. You can't beat the price or quality!

I created a first year collage, like I also made for each of the girls, and again, printed it at Costco. It's 20x30 and only cost 10 bucks. Love them. I decorated the mantel with Jake toys and stuffed animals that we already had (remember, my girls are obsessed!).

Target had their pirate party stuff on clearance. Score! I got a great deal on the birthday banner, table cloth, plates, cups, and napkins. I got the pirate buckets on clearance after Easter--they were supposed to be Easter baskets. I put goldfish and chips in one, and pirate booty in the other.
I made the cupcake toppers, pirate flags for the pirate ship hot dogs, and the food signs.

I bought bandannas for the guests, as well as foam pirate swords--those were a big hit with the kiddos!

I made the vest for our Disney Pirates cruise, so I'm glad he was able to wear it again! He's an adorable little pirate. I also made the girls' outfits, and hair bows, for the pirates cruise. They had cute rag skirts as well, but they took those off. :) Also, Claire is doing her best pirate impression, which is why she looks goofy! Silly girl.

I had so much fun planning this party! Everyone had a great time, which really, is what it's all about. Because obviously the birthday boy didn't care about the theme or details. :)
Amazing! Even I planned a pirate themed party for my nephew last month. It was in one of the Chicago venues and it was a great success. The kids had a lot of fun and I baked a huge cake for everybody. I simply loved the decoration and arrangements done here. It’s fantastic!
