We had a big day yesterday for our little boy. Kaipo is almost 3 and we had the BIG, crazy family party, with both families. We fed about 40 people, so it is always quite an undertaking to plan for these get togethers.
Kaipo has been BIG into pirates lately, so that is the party theme we decided on.The 10 kids had fun playing pirate games and going on a treasure hunt for prizes!
Here is Captain Kaipo, all suited up for his party

He got LOTS of fun gifts, but THIS one really captured his attention...
It was a Pirates of the Carribean music card. Of course it has since been destroyed,
but it was a VERY cool card!
I am really enjoying this age with Kaipo (minus the tantrums about EVERYTHING).
He is very easily entertained and has fun doing soo many different things!

And here is the captain's Pirate Ship Cake.
Mom CAN'T take credit for this one, unfortunately.
I wasn't feeling brave enough to attempt Kaipo's cake, but once I saw it
I realized how easy it actually would have been to make myself.
It was definitely worth all the work to put the party together,
when I saw Kaipo's excitement for it all!
I love you Buddie
We are having a little friend party ON his actual birthday. We invited his 3 buddies in the ward that are closest in age to him. It is just going to be very simple...a few games and cupcakes! But Kaipo will LOVE the idea of another party
