The T-shirt is from his drawer, and the track pants were about to be sacraficed to the god of torn out knees anyway. The inflatable sword came from a Happy Meal box, as did the eyepatch not showing in this picture. The only thing I bought was a 97 cent bandana and 89 cents worth of red satin fabric, both courtesy of WalMart.

Voila &#8211; instant pirate!<\/p>\n<p>More important than anything, though, was the fact that he <em>loved <\/em>it.
