Pirate cake and party outfit

What a weekend! I'm a little tired to do a whole post on the party or my beautiful 3 year old right now, but here's a picture of her party outfit....

When we went to Party Tree to get her plates and napkins, she saw the pirate hat and hook that she just HAD to have. She really wanted to wear them to her party, so I designed her party outfit around the hat and the hook :) I made her tutu - totally winged it but it came out great. I ironed on her pirate patch on her shirt, made her legwarmers (I guess you can't see them here but they're black and gray stripes), and she got her shoes from our friend Mary. She didn't feel well when she woke up from her nap, but as soon as she saw herself in the mirror, she was ready to go :)

And here is her Pirate Ship Cake!

I thought it came out pretty good. I brought the kids over to Mom's house this morning and decorated it. It's just two round cakes cut in half. Rolos for cannons, Mom made the sails, and some Playmobil pirates.
Also Pirate cupcakes. These were carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. Delicious!
And one more view of the pirate outfit. I'm afraid she's going to want to wear it everywhere now!
We really missed Uncle Mike, Aunt Jenni, Eli and Jude! And both of my kids are sick. But other than that it was a great party. I'll post more later - right now I'm going to lay on the couch :)
