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