On Saturday we had Chloe's big pirate birthday party! She is still talking about what her favorite parts were. She had 12 of her besties come and celebrate with her! there are way too many pictures here-I will warn you now! i totally forgot to take pictures of the favors which were these awesome goody bags with apirate sword, eye patch,earring and a compass. Then they got a pirate frisbee and a pirate sucker when they left. This party was so fun to plan because so many places had pirate stuff for halloween-and most of it came from the dollar store or on clearance at jo-anns, then we made the rest! pretty easy and cheap! here ya go...

they had to be hand delivered because I wasn't about to try and mail them!
