ARRRRRGH! Kids these days like pirates. Just think: how many pirates came to your door a week ago on Halloween? Honestly, our neighborhood Halloween parade looked like a kids' casting of Pirates of the Caribbean. Zeke is not immune. Zeke's interest began with an episode of Backyardigans with some catchy songs. He doesn't watch Backyardigans anymore, but still asks to see this episode. I know it is a popular episode and had that confirmed when I was out canvassing last week and a member of my canvassing team started humming part of the episode. Nick Jr no longer has a clip online, but if you go to YouTube you can find dozens of kids singing songs from the episode and asking, "What do you do with a scurvy pirate?"
I bought a pirate hat last week from a Halloween display and the hat has been everywhere since then.
A pirate enjoys the live music at the farmer's market. (Those are produce-shaped shakers provided by the band.) Pirates are infamous for their love of guitars and local eating.
A pirate takes a bath, because being a pirate is a dirty job.
Zeke defends our Halloween decorated porch from another pirate (i.e., the kid from a few doors down who has a very serious thing for pirates). Not pictured: Captain Z. makes him walk the plank.
