Pontificating about poop and pinot noir since 2005
I'm Jamie, just another working mom seeking a few moments of Zen and zinfandel between soccer practice and supper. My former beach bartender husband founded MouseCalls Computer Services here in Nashville. We have two daughters, two dogs, and too much laundry. I believe laughter is the best medicine, especially when administered with a good glass of wine, or three. Read more about me...Copyright © 2012 Blonde Mom Blog | Developed by NW Designs

Wow, you sure were resourceful and creative! I just emptied our wallet to Disney. It’s so much better and more memorable to create it yourself. There was that year that we made a dragon costume for Natalie that almost wasn’t ready for Halloween though. Your girls look great!
Thanks Allison! Last year I dropped way too much cashola at Party City on Miss A’s werewolf mask and gloves. I did have to make two trips to two different Goodwill stores to find most of this so the time factor was great but I have to admit I had fun finding all this. The pants are gaucho style and they’re a black jersey knit material. I just cut up the hemline to make them look more “piratey.”
Those costumes are FANTASTIC. Love the details like the hoop earring!
Pirates must have been THE thing this year. All three of my little ones were looking for pirate booty door to door too.
I am doing a lecture on descendants of British pirates now living in Honduras. I’d like your permission to use a picture of the girls for my lecture. I figure it’s a fun way to show that point.
I completely understand if you are not comfortable with this-I just wanted to ask in the hopes that you are OK with it.
It’s an enrichment lecture on a cruise ship, so the audience will not be more than 100 people or so. We are going to Honduras as a port. Unfortunately, both of my nieces (including my namesake) and my step-daughter are all grown up, and never thought to be pirates when they were the age of yours:) Thanks for sharing what looks like a hectic and fun life!
Oh, one more thing- My first name really is English-You can look me up on Facebook-English Caroline Brown from Bluffton, SC- (I get a lot of disbelief when I introduce myself!)
