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