AAARRGGHH!!!

Joel wanted an adventure-style party this year. So we decided to go \”pirate adventure\”. We made a fun \”treasure map\” for the initation. It read:

Ahoy there ye maties, come if you dare! It\’s a shipload of fun for Joel\’s 5th birthday fare… Hunting for pirate treasure is part of the plan. Aye, batten down yer hatches — run as fast as ye can!

We burned the edges, rolled it up, wrapped it with twine and Joel hand delivered most – dressed for the part. He greeted his fellow maties with, \”Hardy me hardies!! Come to my adventure party!!\” He was so cute as he ran up to each door and delivered the \”maps\”!
