Pirate Fest
The pirates are here!
Gasparilla is right around the corner and for Tampa Bay residents, that means parties, parades, pirate gear and this year, photos from Nicole Geller! Her Pirate Fest January 9th from 9-3 will feature awesome pirate gear from local vendors and a chance to get adorable photos of your kids and pets. For just $50, your 15 minute photo sessions will get you one 8x10 or two 5x7's plus a digital photo. If you can't make the Pirate Fest, Nicole will still do pirate sessions for the special price the entire month of January. Want to get in on the parade action? Enter to win a chance to ride on Nicole's float for the January 23rd children's parade! Contest runs January 4th-20th and 10% of photography sales and money collected from votes will benefit the Ronald McDonald House charity.

Pirate Footwear
Skull shoes and flip flops
With lots of different styles to choose from, Baby Rock Apparel (www.babyrockapparel.com) comes through with skull designed footwear for little piggies. We love the pink skull slip-ons for girls and the black and white laced canvas “Charlie” shoe for boys. Both are made with super soft 100% cotton lining and a discreet elastic back on the heel to ensure fit. The price is nice too...your pick for $24.99.

Pirate Prints
Invites and thank yous for celebratory pirates
The simplicity and functionality of this cute stationary set is what captured our attention most. The invites are easy to fill-out (a must for busy moms) and the thank you notes can be easily embellished by a young child's “signature” to make personal (because contemporary pirates show gratitude for their booty). Great for pirate themed birthdays or Gasparilla parties; try a pirate and princess party to satisfy all personalities. www.etsy.com/shop/ModernClassicsKids
