As some of you know one of the very first things Caitlyn said was "Arrggg" because of a favorite show of hers. We thought it only fitting that she share her pirate greeting with all the other trick or treaters. Having a store bought costume is not something I ever had as a child because I was blessed with a mom that was so talented she would make the best costumes for me each year. Because of the great quality of my costumes nearly all of them have been saved for the other grandkids to use when wanted. This year Caitlyn's costume was a creation from part of the gypsy costume I wore when I was 5 I believe. With some creative stitching I was able to alter the shirt to fit Caitlyn. The vest was also part of the gypsy outfit and was an easy fix in making it smaller. The pirate hat was from our last trip to Jamaica during a visit to Margaritaville. Add a parrot to carry around and we were set. The perfect pirate costume.
