5.
Holy smokes!
I can't believe I have a 5 year old. And about to have another 5 year old, a 3 year old, and a 2 year old in just a couple of months! So crazy.
So for the fifth birthday we had a pirate party. Noah's birthday fell at the same time we decided to take a vacation and visit family in KY. My parents were gracious enough to host the party.
I think they REALLY enjoyed it. And by that I mean, they kinda went overboard. In a good way, of course. Mom got the decorations and made a pirate ship cake and pirate cake pops. Dad planned a treasure hunt, mapped it out with clues and ended with real buried treasure!
...and the kicker?
Captain Jack came along!
Apparently my parents have a neighbor who dresses up like a pirate for kids' birthday parties. How hilarious...and perfect.
Here are some pictures.

The cake table. Ship cake and cake pops that my mom made. She did a great job!
Our motley crew before the treasure hunt.
