Insanely busy 4 days!!

Macguire's bday was Thursday and I had a table at a Kids Fair to show my work (my first one!). Then Friday Macguire picked the pirate show for his bday dinner. Sat was opening day of baseball (a huge deal that lasts hours) and a basketball game, then Sunday was his bday party (another huge deal that lasted hours!!).


I will start with the Pirate dinner...so the food was barely OK but the show was actually pretty good. Entertaining, a couple contests, some acrobatics, and they got kids involved in a few things too. Macguire was picked to be sworn in as a pirate and then at the end of the show a member of the princess's army. Niya even really enjoyed it! We thought she might be freaked out.

The gang...we were on the Red Pirate's team...

Enthralled with the action...


Up on stage being sworn in as a pirate, Mac has the light pants on in the middle. (side note: these were taken with a point and shoot and no flash was allowed so I had to slow the shutter down...basically - excuse the blur)

All the pirates taking their oath, Mac is still on stage...

Then at the end in the princess army, he was very serious about this...SO CUTE!!
(turned the flash on for these because no one was flying around the stage)



He loved it and that is all that mattered. I just wish they would get better food for how much it is. But hey, you only turn 5 once right!
