Pirates!

I finally put together Adam's pirate ship that Grandma Helen sent for his birthday. I was going to wait until his birthday next month, but the boys had opened the box and I was afraid that one or more of the pieces would get lost and it would never be able to be put together. Adam was very excited when he came down for breakfast that there was a pirate ship in the kitchen!
Oh, that thing he is looking through? Don't generalize and say it's a telescope or Jack will correct you the way he corrected me. "Actually, Mommy, that's not a telescope, it's a periscope."

As soon as Jack saw the pirate ship, he tried to insist that he is the captain of the ship.
Those cannons do work...and they've managed to hit Mason 3 times. They can't decide whether he's a scurvy pirate or just a baby shark. Good thing those cannon balls don't hurt.
