full day...

we decided to attend the tall ships festival in green bay.

(and writing this post i realize how behind i am with the blog...this was the third weekend of august, i think!)

max decided to dress up as a pirate for the festival.  why not!!!

he was a hit.  everyone commented on his pirate-ness and wanted to take his picture!

we got our map and were ready to go!

the ships were amazing.  it was a gorgeous day and a fun family adventure.

here is our little pirate ready to board a tall ship.

this one was a rebuilt version of a ship from the 1800s that still had some of the original parts!

taking a break to have some lunch.

it got hot, so our pirate had to remove some of his costume! :)

next we had the opportunity to hold a real macaw and get our pictures taken!

next up was another boat tour!

we headed home, had dinner, and relaxed a bit before our next outing.

we loaded blankets up into our wagon and walked over to memorial park to watch a movie on the hill.

we enjoyed snuggles, popcorn and wreck-it ralph!

what a great family day!
