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