I can now say I’ve been to a Pirate festival…
This weekend was the Blackbeard Pirate Festival here in Hampton. It was a beautiful day so we decided to venture out; afterall, Trey LOVES pirate stuff. Well, he pretty much loves anything that involves weapons and violence. Hmm. yay.
It was fun! Definitely interesting, with some very interesting people, but altogether fun.
Here are a few shots:
The ship isn’t technically a pirate ship. It’s the Kalmar Nyckel. But it’s VERY neat and still sails in the open sea. Trey had a good time looking at the canons on board.
Cool.
I’ll have some pics of the boys up soon.

Dang you Kassia and your double blogs. You know I can’t NOT read both of them. That’s like being offered two pieces of chocolate fudge cake and saying, “no, I’ll just have one thanks.” Who turns that down?
Just one more thing for me to distract myself with when I am SUPPOSED to be working…

OH well – I hope the next four years bring great adventure for your family! P

Hahaha. I figured it out Paula… and I agree with everything you said. Totally. Ditto. Yep. And most of the time I’m proud. Much of the time it sucks you-know-what… some of the time I grin and bear it… yadda yadda. Ahh the life, right?

Kassia,
This was the first year we missed the festival. Jer was gone and I just forgot. Love your pics! I should be doing homework…
