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