Kevin has a lot of pirate gear, so we decided why not just use what we have a and add a little to it to make him a Pirate for Halloween. The only thing he needed was a shirt. I was just going to go to the DI and find him a long sleeved white shirt and call it good, but I decided to look at their cotume section and, no joke, this shirt was the only Pirate item they had and it was perfect. I found some red material to make the sash and cut up some old church pants and he was good to go!
Claire, like Kevin with his Pirate stuff, has a lot of Fairy stuff. The only items she did not have was a wand, because she broke her last one doing to much fairy magic, and some sparkly fairy make-up. She loved playing the part of the fairy princess and can't wait to do it again on Halloween!
There were all sorts of fun activities for the kids to do at the Party. They had a table set up for decorating cookies. This, of course, is where my kids spent a lot of their time.
Instead of a cake walk they had a book walk. The kids all got a chance to walk around and when they landed on the right number they won a book!
Here is Claire with her book. She was very excited to win one. Kevin didn't land on any winning numbers, but they let him pick out a book anyway. It was a fun night! Thanks Monica for inviting us!
