My girls...


These are about half of the girls in my hubby's youth group. Being the wife of a student minister has its advantages. One of them is that I get to spend time with these gals. It is even better now that my own daughter and her friends are a part of the group.
I love to plan a party. Every September I have had the privilege to be a part of planning a lock in for our youth group girls. Only we choose not to just have an ordinary lock in, we like theme parties around these here parts. Two years ago it was a princess party, last year was "Hollywood" and this year we are doing a pirate/treasure hunt theme. Fun, fun, fun!!!
Anyway, if you don't hear much from me this week, it is because I'm all tied up in the planning of a pirate adventure. I promise to come back after I "survived" the "alnighter" this weekend, with plenty of pictures.
Hope you have a GREAT week.

HOW FUN IS THIS!?!

HOW creative!!

We LOVE to be pirates around here! We had a pirate birthday party, and a pirate float in the parade this year!

At our walmart they had pirate patches/earings in the party sections! We got like 5 sets for a few dollars! Made our own t-shirts and used red hankys as head scarves! You can check out the picture in my about me section :))

Loving your blog!
