This weekend we threw a big bash for my dad's 65th birthday. The theme was "65 and Crabby" for a few reasons, one being that he's a marine environmental consultant. My mom loves to go over the top with the theme so this was an easy one for her to go way overboard....

| My present to my dad. A picture of the anchor from the cruise we just went on. I propped it in front of the guest book since it went with the theme! |
| The treasure chest. Filled with lots of goodies and chocolate crab lollipops to take home. |

| Crab bread bowl. A local bakery went above and beyond to get this one done. It was whole wheat too!! |
| We wore sailor hats as our name tags. My mom was the first and last mate. |
| Looks a bit like a haunted house, but nautical themed decor was all over the place, including the dining room chandelier. |

| Craig's Crabby Cocktail. Made by me of course! |

| The amazing cake. Ginger on the bottom, white chocolate raspberry on top. Yum! |
