Argh! Ry is 4!

We had originally planned on a Lighting McQueen party, but a few weeks before we started buying decorations, it was changed to a pirate party. Since we didn't have a party for him this year since we live further away, we just made his entire birthday a pirate party. He had a great time.

The birthday boy requested pizza. He enjoyed making as much as he did eating it.


Ry's pirate ship cake.


Argh! Had to have another mini cake for the extra pirate candles that were a must.


One of his favorite things about birthdays.


He enjoyed opening his gifts and even let Austin & Mallory help out. Thank you to Aunt Trish and Nana for sending his gifts to Erin's house. When he opened Aunt Trish's he said, "Oh, a box." He was more excited when he discovered there was stuff inside the box.


What's a party without a pinata?


Try getting that bat away from him.


Go Mal!




We set up a treasure hunt for Rylan. At first, he said he knew where the treasure was, but looked at us like he didn't believe there was a treasure there. When he did discover the treasure he hid it off & on for the remainder of the day. Here is short clip of him finding his treasure for the first time.
