This is nothing special, well to you anyway. I'm not a scrapbook type, or a baby book writer, or even a picture printer. I'm terrible at recording memories. This blog is my attempt at holding on to some of my life as a Christian, a wife, and a homeschooling Mom of 5. I am a country girl that lived in a big city for 14 years, and moved to the Deep South for quiet, quaint, small town living.

Arrrrrg!

After a sweet b-day breakfast, we asked George if he was missing anything for his birthday.  It took a while before he guessed presents.  (I am taking that as a good thing!)  
Troy and I started looking around, we made big eyes at each other and with horror in our voice,
we told George that Pirates must have took his presents! 

 But, alas!  There was a button and note where the gifts would have been.
 Ohhh, there is hope for getting his gifts!
 First one found in the pantry!

 Livia gladly read the clues for George and let him take the lead on where to go.  
It was great to see all three kids totally into the hunt!
 Of course, those pesky pirates went back and forth from upstairs and down stairs to try and wear out the little explorers.
 Ginnie got a little sidetracked with new dress up outfit.....




 Hey, look what fell out of the freezer!

 He ended up looking for the 7th, and last gift outside.
 Triumph!
 The Loot!
 It was a great day, even George agreed.  
His requested spaghetti and meatballs for dinner.  
It was a little hard to find a place for the candle, but garlic bread saved the day!
A black bottom cake for the finale!
