Piratey Things

Pirates from Kami Latorre on Vimeo.

I am posting this on my blog entirely without permission because my sister Kami is SO AMAZING and AWESOME. This is a video of pics taken to showcase Halloween costumes. Here's the thing: Kami sewed/created all of them herself. Including the boots and hats. The weapons were the only thing she didn't make. I can't get over it.

I didn't think she could create anything to rival the gnome costumes she made a few years ago. They are still my very favorite costumes of all time. I'll post a few pics so you can also be amazed.

Kami, you a creative genius. I bow in your general direction and kiss your elbows repeatedly.

"The story is told that in ancient Rome a group of women were, with vanity, showing their jewels one to another. Among them was Cornelia, the mother of two boys. One of the women said to her, 'And where are your jewels?' To which Cornelia responded, pointing to her sons, 'These are my jewels.' They grew to be two of the most persuasive and effective reformers in Roman history. It is so obvious that the great good and the terrible evil in the world today are the sweet and the bitter fruits of the rearing of yesterday's children. As we train a new generation, so will the world be in a few years. If you are worried about the future, then look to the upbringing of your children." Gordan B. Hinckley, President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
