Pirates & Mermaids, Take a Look at Haunted Bookstore 2015 Pirates can’t live on gold alone, cookies are essential. Way easier to shop for books before the store gets dark and spooky! Celica arrived just in time to help, thanks Celica! Walking the plank – easier for chicks than mermaids it turns out. Best part of the bookstore. Allie and her dad Lowell were a huge hit making balloon creatures. Thanks! Beware of sharks! The Three Buccaneers! Katie, Katrina and Joe. Thanks for the help! A crazy pirate lady reading, or maybe the wicked witch. Seaweed Dip anyone? Jelly fish craft, and a cute, big eyed pirate girl! Courtney, the Pirate Queen! The potentially outlaw Phillips family, minus Mike Rowe. (I think he was off fixing something) Party action. The family costume prize winners – if there had been a contest! Mermaids Sarah and Aubrey with pirate mom Lindsey! A kidnapped Puritan, gone a little batty…aka Jill! A little not-very-high stakes dice game going on. Pirates in action. Okay, this is my favorite part! Here’s a wide eyed listener! Hope those ghost stories were not too scary! Jake is ready for a dice game. Mini as the pit boss. Riley photobombed by a balloon sword, but cute anyway! Howard Wu shows some lesser known skills as a pirate musician. The cutest little mermaid! Look at that tail! Aubrey with dad. Sarah and her dad James made a great Pirate/mermaid team! Yes, Howard sounded authentically piratical. Jackie helping some royalty make jellyfish. The Pirate Hook Toss game.
