Uber cute at 15 months in a kilt

[Barb T]

I just finished my grandson's third kit, and it's the first one he's had since he started walking. So, I thought he ought to have the whole outfit for the Pikes Peak Highland Games this past weekend! I went to Joann's and bought a buckle and a bit of wide black elastic and made him a belt, and we went to Target and bought some black knee socks to wear with some tiny tartan flashes. I'd found him a teeny weeny sporran at the New Hampshire Highland Games last fall, and a piper friend gave me a tiny pair of black leather wing tips that she'd found at a garage sale about 20 years ago. They look just like ghillie brogues. Here's the result - Mommy, Daddy, and our grandson:



Kilt is Celtic Nations tartan in PV. Pleating is to the stripe:



Here's a pic of our grandson and me - I took my pipes with me, and the pipe band that our daughter plays in was gracious enough to let me join them for massed bands!
