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