Pirate Parker's Birthday Party

What's a pirate's favorite letter? 
Arrrrhh!
Ahhhh... you would think...but it's the sea!

Today we celebrated Parker's third birthday.  He was soooooooo excited for his party!  He referred to Hunter, Jon and I as "matey" all morning as we were preparing for the big event!


Invitation for the big event!


Ahoy me Hearties!



The table has been set.  We have the proper treasure, grub, drink and doubloons that any buccaneer worth his sea salt could desire!



My Mom carved this pirate ship for the party complete with plank and all!  Toooooo cute!  (Way-to-go Mom!)  It even had a proper jolly roger!



Cupcakes worth two galleons...a three year old boy's dessert of choice!


 
 Parker Reed Hayes...the guest of honor...or known to some on this particular day as Scurvy Dog!



Parker is ready for the scallywags to arrive.  I caught him looking out the window to see if any guests had turned up.  How cute is that?


Opening presents or "capturing the loot" to a pirate.   He was engrossed with the trucks he was given as Will Treat and I look on. 



Today marks the beginning of a new adventure for the Hayes household...the start of our life with "Captain Hook", the beta fish Parker was given by his Uncle Tony and Ashley.  His aquarium is so cute.  I hope he likes it here!



Parker with Gran Mary, Papa Tom and the one thing he had to have...a cement mixer...go figure! 



Onto the pool for outdoor shenanigans!  The buckos even walked the plank a few times!



Hunter, Parker, Will and I jumping up and down in the pool.  They couldn't get enough of this.  I love the simple things in life!



Hunter in action as Grammie and Mema look on.



Little man relaxing in his floaty enjoying the day!  Shiver-me-timbers the party was a SUCCESS!

Parker's School Play

Today was Parker's school play, Show Tunes - Past and Present. I have to say it was one of the cutest things I've ever seen.  Miss Kim, Miss Melanie and staff are amazing with these kids. How they get these 2 and 3 year olds to perform like they do is remarkable.  Parker was cast to be Ricky Ricardo from the I Love Lucy Show




Parker is getting suited up to play Ricky Ricardo. He has a solo and a duet and has been practicing for a month. I'm a little nervous for him at this point.


 

Bobeluuuuuuuuuuu!!!  Every time I watch this my heart melts...pretty good for a two year old!  I especially love the dancing at the end and the kiss!




Here is the class up on stage with Miss Kim.  You can see the Strawberry Shortcakes, the Genies from I Dream of Genie, the Mickey and Minnie Mouses, etc.




Here are Ricky and Lucy after the play, the crowd favorites!  I was sooooooo proud of him.  It doesn't get any cuter than that!
