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