Colbys 6th Pirate Birthday Party

Colby decided he wanted a pirate birthday this year... he invited a bunch of friends and had a blast!
He was excited for all his friends to come but he especially wanted Joe from school to come. And he wanted him to buy him a webkinz. I was a little nervous because his mom nevered RSVPd and that was all Colby could talk about..."I hope Joe comes and buys me a webkinz, mom call up Joe and see if he got my webkinz" He came!! And even bought him a webkinz, it made Colbys day!

After presents we played a couple of pirate games and then did a treasure hunt. Let me say this...it was INSANE!!! It was like a Chinese fire drill. 15 kids all running around trying to find clues, put the treasures in their treasure boxes. Then the boxes bottoms kept popping out so I tried to stop all the kids so I could tape them but they were too busy just running around being crazy. Colby enjoyed it though so I guess it was worth it.

The final treasure they found was a treasure box pinata full of candy of course! Can't really see the basketball hoop here but that was our present to Colby :)

I made cupcakes this year, normally I buy them but figured this way was cheaper and the kids don't really care anyways. They were just green (Colby's favorite color) with pirate rings on top, not sure why I didn't get a picture of them?
