Power Ranger, No Ninja, No Ben 10, No this & that




Hard to believe once again!

Our Zach turned 6 years old on June 16th. His birthday party was on June 12th, as we have had such a packed schedule that was the only time I could fit it in. He couldn't decide what theme to have for his party and changed 5 times a week. I told him once we bought things he was stuck and couldn't change his mind anymore. He decided on Pirates once we got to the store.

Zachary is such a loving sweet boy! He has a soft, kind heart.

He loves to win. If we are watching something competitive he is always rooting for the team or guy that is winning. If they lose their lead then Zach changes sides.

He loves everything small, like little kids, animals, babies and says in a high voice..."oh how cute"

Zachary loves thrill rides at amusement parks (except Tower of Terror). He is really sad if he is to short to go on something and says, I don't want to go on baby rides.

He is a mommy's boy.

He loves Halloween, Christmas and Easter (of course).

He loves his grandma's, and grandpa.

Camping & Fishing - YES

He also keeps asking when we can go to Yellowstone, Disneyland and Lagoon. 3 of his favorite places.

He doesn't like church and complains just hearing the word. Usually when we are getting ready he will say, "mom, can't we just skip today?".


Grandma Diane made pirate hats for everyone with braids. The boys had red and the girls had purple. This was so much fun to add to our party. THANKS MOM! (she always rescues me and helps me out when I have an idea I don't have time to do)

Our Pirate Party Clan

We had on the back row L-R: Logan Hansen, Jaxsen Steggell, Ty Coleman, Zachary Bliss, Chloe Rawlings, Kenzie Garrett, Luke Garrett. Front Row L-R: Riley Hicks, Mathew Taylor, Hayley Steggell, Emily Coleman, Ella Taylor, Alicyn Bliss


This was the ball and chain game. Pirates often go to jail with a ball and chain. We went outside and everyone tried to pop the other persons ball, without theirs getting popped.

Then we played musical islands and when you got kicked off the island you had to WALK THE PLANK! ARRRG!












Ahoy Matee....Be careful not to fall in the ocean, there are sharks, alligators and octopus.








The pirates found their gold and also played pin the parrot on the pirate.


Zach licked all his frosting off his cupcake before I could get a picture.

What a fun party! I love those kind where there are games and at someone's house, it reminds me of the good old days. And my mom always helps me out too, when my ideas are much bigger than I can fulfill!
