Jamie's pirate pool party

Last year Jamie's birthday was the day before we left for Japan. He asked for months to go to the Bainbridge pool for his party. We failed him. So my guilt led me to throw him a half-birthday party which we had last Saturday. It was a pirate party and he invited friends from school, church, and our family. I really tried to go with the whole theme and made a pirate boat cake, got pirate booty and skewered watermelon cubes with sword toothpicks. All the kids had pirate loot bags with eye-patches and and bandana, chocolate gold coins and a few other goodies. I think I had just as much fun planning the party as Jamie did enjoying it!

Easter treasure hunt

I never got a chance to post these pictures as sometimes it is hard to coordinate the pictures on our two different cameras. Sorry for Chad's tilty video!

Kinder-graduation

A few weeks ago Jamie had his Kindergarten graduation. For some reason they had it a few days before school was over and he was kinda confused that he had to go back. And then he was even more confused when everyone told him that he was now a first grader and he doesn't get to start first grade until summer is over. Anyways, he was cute in his graduation attire and we got some good pictures.
