Ahoy Me Hearties - It's a Pirate Costume Party!

We had a little "fun" yesterday preparing for Speedy's Pirate Party. Shiner might disagree just a little that dressing like a pirate isn't so fun however...


We scoured Lily's costume and dress-up clothes for pirate-worthy attire. She used to have a pirate costume, but I must have gotten rid of it because it was too little. Shiner was first to model pirate-style.


Arrrrgh... 
Shiner moaned and groaned a bit about the whole pirate thing, but she got over it once I showed her a tasty treat afterwards.

Lily is a big fan of Speedy and really wanted to join his party. I'm going to help her post something on her little blog for Speedy's party but here is one of her pictures dressed as a pirate.

Lily's pirate costume. 
And where is my pirate costume you ask? Well, I didn't actually dress up yesterday... but I did dress up a few years ago for Halloween, so I'll go ahead and show you that picture.

Lily and I in 2009 dressed as pirates! 
Be sure to stop by Speedy's blog today and check out everyone else's awesome Pirate Party costumes!


And to be extra pirate-y, you can read this entire post translated into pirate-speak below. I found the most awesome translator here. It's really a lot of fun to play with!

  6. Ooooh! HELLO THERE! How kind of you to come visit me! Yes, that French tart with the ice cream is rather alluring, non? And I just adore your white pup in the first photo. I told my husband this morning that for Christmas, I want the book, THE FRENCH DOG (let's face it, I'm a French teacher!) - the photos in this book are packed with some of the most adorable dogs who live in French castles and villas. A DOG'S LIFE!

    Happy day, and go out and find something sweet to eat! Anita

    You did a great job modeling your pirate gear, Shiner! You even had your own built-in eye patch!
    Ann, Lily is so pretty! You're going to have to be so careful of the boys in a few years!
