ARGH! I'm A Pirate!!

This year for Halloween Ry decided she wanted to be a pirate so I enlisted my Mom to help make it. Ok, so basically she made the whole thing but I helped (a little). We had extra material left over so Quinnie got to be a little pirate too. I have to say that the costumes turned out super cute and the girls loved them!

Quinnie trying on her pirate wrap that was suppose to go around her waist but she liked it on her head better! She looks like a cute little garden gnome!
My Ry in all her pirate glory! I asked her what her pirate name would be and she told me Captain Uniqua- as in the Backyardigans. To funny!

Ry was so excited to finally be able to carver her pumpkin from GG's Punkin patch! She really got into it this year, getting elbow deep in the slimy pumpkin guts and all. It was fun to watch her get all messy with it and have a good time too!

It's hard work getting it all cleaned out.
Daddy and Mommy had to help a little bit but Ry did a ton of the work herself.

Miss Quinnie got pretty upset that she was missing all the fun so she watched from her high chair and ended up eating pumpkin guts. I thought she would just touch them and not like them but was I ever wrong! She was shoveling them in as fast as she could until I took them away. Ry tasted them too but didn't like them like Quinn did.

The family of pumpkins
Knock Knock!! Trick or Treat!
This was the first year that Ry really got it and wasn't afraid to knock on the doors herself and say Trick or Treat! It was a lot of fun watching her do it and seeing the excitement for all the candy- even if we only went to our families (She will not starve for lack of candy)

My Pirate girls! Ry loved every minute of it- even if Mom had to take her sword away for getting a little too rough with it

So tuckered out after all the excitement. Quinn fell asleep but once we got home it was like all the sugar kicked in and she was off. Ry on the other hand was out like a light when we got home.

All in all, it was a great day and we all had a lot of fun. We got to visit the families and spend a few mintues with each of the GG's! Rylee is already talking about next year!
