Captain Kirk, The Pirate King, Has a Birthday

Aye, it be true that the Captain of our Ship

has a birthday in October!  What be more fittin'

than to celebrate his birthday in his true form -

a pirate!

Yea, it truly be his name -

Captain Kirk.  

(Best pirate cake ever, all chocolate for the Captain,

 made by Annie,

what had to be transported across the ocean

to the ship, but she made it intact.) 

And nothin' be too good for this Captain.

He be a man of many faces, many hats, and many fancy clothes.

(One of the wee ones be askin' how many pirate clothes me

had, and me said, "Not as many as Papa (Captain Kirk)!"

But this be his best party outfit - to celebrate

the big day!

Aaarrrgh!!

He be the Captain of these scurvy mates,

and the Captain of many wee ones - all fit to man the ship.

As of yet - there ain't been a mutiny, but that little

one I be holdin' looks ready to abandon ship.

(Here be the real treasure in life - the wee ones!)

Pirating runs in the family, and they all be trained.

His crew be a scary bunch, but they all be loyal

to the Captain.

Wantin' to make him proud of their scariest faces

Their best swords,

And their finest party clothes.

It's all fun and games, until someone loses an eye...

and this bunch been in a few too many of them 

situations.

Don't ye be messing with these two!

Jacquelyn looks like the captain of her ship - scary!

Can't be too scared of this one - YET!

(But with a name like Saylor, she'll be a true pirate too.)

(Me new Cricut, put to pirate use!)

(A serving wench - uh, lass!)

(Of course, some pirate cookies.)

All hail the Captain!

We would swing for you, Captain!

What a swinging time! 

Best band of pirates ever!!  

Yo Ho, Yo Ho, The Family Life for Me!!

The innocent pirate-to-be.

Little Pirate's Birthday Party

Not only did the Pirate's manning the 

ship at

Pirate's Cove have an 

Anniversary Party,

but we celebrated a 4th birthday for

one of our favorite pirates

with a Pirate Pinata, masks, 

a cake with sparklers and candles

and  Pirate booty - gifts.

There still be a lot of innocence left in this

here pirate's face.  Notice the pirate candles

on the cake. And all of the little pirates

dressed in their pirate best.

This be the rough crew he be sailin' with these days!

The little guy's party took place right outside

this dining room.  There be four houses

on Pirate's Cover property and this

house be named 

Port Royal.

Beautiful windows make it the best

spot for a view out on the Captain's crew.

This be the newest of the houses located right

by the fort and kiddie swimmin' hole.

The rustic wood and massive size of this

table speaks that the

Captain of the Ship

dines here.

The scurvy fellow must have left his

favorite boots right here in the center

of his table.

Pardon me language Captain!

Looks like there be plenty comin' to dine tonight.

He ordered his black skull flatware to be used.

We be using' our favorite silvered skull plates

again found here on the property.

They be a great match with the flatware,

his suite,

and with his bed!

 

The salad plate has smaller skulls

and the matching large bowl be just as fine.

We be likin' the blink of the metallic silver!

Two serving wenches stand ready in the corner

to obey the Captain's every command.

They be dressed in some mighty fine clothes.

Must be some of his favorite wenches on board.

Again, we be fixin' to use the skull mugs -

nothin' but the best for our Captain.

A little skullduggery bedecks the center of the table too.

We be hopin' that the Captain removes his

boots from the table before dinner starts.

Now to end this post 

with a little swingin' fun!

Kind of reminds you of that monkey in

Pirate's of the Carribean!

(This here be my youngest monkey!)
