Halloween 2014

Esme is all about pirates right now.  She loves them almost as much as princesses.  Which is why she decided that she wanted to be a pirate princess for Halloween this year.

We went to Disney World in May and Esme got a Merida costume.  Because it was rather a lot expensive, she was told that she would have to be Merida for Halloween and she was fine with that.  But then a couple of months ago she asked if she could be a pirate princess instead.  I asked her if she thought she could wear her Merida dress for that and she thought she could.

Also while she was at Disney she asked for and got a pirate sword and a hook.  All we needed to get was a pirate hat, preferably one that had a pink sparkly skull and crossbones on it (easy right?).  I found a plain brown hat at Target and went to Michael's to get some bling.  Aaron drew Esme a perfectly wonderful skull and crossbones on pink sparkly sticky foam, Esme drew one too!  She looked at both and thought she would like to use hers.  Then she put jewels all over the hat and boom!  She was a pirate princess.

Notice the fabulous Jeweled Jolly Roger!

She had a great time going door to door and getting candy. 

Afterwards, we took her to my parents and Aaron and I went to a Halloween party at Crossfit.  She stayed in her costume all night and would not lay in a bed for fear it would turn into a sleep over.  

We picked her up after midnight and she was still in her costume, minus the hat!

Quite a successful Halloween!
