Jacob's Pirate Costume

With Jacob's 2nd Backyardigans Pirate Party - we prepared 2 costumes for him to wear. - Party details here

A  Pablo costume (Backyardigans character) - this is the  fave character of Jacob from the show. Gladly, my Ate San volunteered to buy this costume from Party City and have it ship it time for party. But, when Jacob saw the costume, he doesn't want it wear it! Could you feel the frustation I felt during those times!

But my mom is really a life-saver! She asked me to look for a peg for a costume and will try our luck with her friend, a local dressmaker (who made Jacob's costume - Peter Pan). So I tried to look online for sample designs that she could copy.

Here's the peg I want her to copy:

A Backyardigans Pirate Birthday Party

     This is a repost from my original blog - addicted2jakey

*NOTE: Be prepared for a very looong post :) 


  Yay! At last, Jacob’s party was over – and it was a Blast! I’m so excited to share all the ideas, details and photos from his 2nd Backyardigans Pirate Party! Here are the details, enjoy! 
      Theme: Backyardigans Pirate Party My Jacob is soo into Backyardigans – thanks too Amos (nephew of our friend, Arnel) who gave the DVDs as a gift on his 1st birthday. I, personally thought of having its one episode as his theme for the 2nd party. I was torn between “Heart of the Jungle and “Pirate says Arrr” episodes – but with the venue we rented , Pirate theme fits! 
(Note: 2nd party – it wasn’t a plan to have a 2nd birthday party as big as this [as I promised my husband last year :-)], but my mother requested to have a party (though not this grand) in Laguna since the 1st party was is Manila (Ortigas – click here for 1st Sesame Street Party). 
        Party Planning in Laguna (or Province, in general) or throwing a not so ordinary, unique party in the province is quite difficult to pull off! The suppliers are very limited, or if opt to bring them from Manila, the rate is waaay higher! I’m so glad I had close group of contacts (suppliers), and for second time in a row, they made Jacob’s party truly memorable and special for everyone.
