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