Captain Jack's tour

While we were in Virginia Beach, Grandma Hen took us and our nephew Bradley on a tour with Captain Jack the pirate!  The boys were excited about waking up, putting on their "pirate clothes", and heading off on an adventure!

There were so many things to enjoy on the ship!  The boys enjoyed rousing games of limbo

 

and hot potato.


P was chosen to help prepare the cannon for firing.


P especially enjoyed the face paint.  He chose this gory scar.


Near the end of our time at sea, Blackbeard came past our ship in his motor boat.  Everyone was encouraged to shoot the rogue pirate with water cannons, and - as you'd expect - that was a popular attraction.


We closed out the day with dinner at Chili's with Uncle Michael and a stop at the store for some school uniforms and a face paint kit.


C also spotted this Snow White top at Old Navy.  It was originally part of a pajama set, but the pants were gone.  The top was on clearance for 47 cents, and C has worn it at least 47 times.  We have definitely gotten our money's worth on that one.  :)


Thanks for a great day, Grandma Hen!
