The Hunt Winds Down, The Final Clue!
As I read the clue, for the first time I get running Commentary from the girls:
Me: Are you tired yet?
Mini Me: NO!
Me: Do You need to Rest Your Head?
Mini Me: NOOOOO!
Me: For your next clue go look under your bed!
Sweet Child: You mean you put something under our bed while ?
Sweet Child then realizes that her sister has a 15 sec head start and runs upstairs to catch up!
They get the box, notice the team work divide and conquer Thats my girls!
Sweet Child finishes off the present while Mini Me gets the clue ready to be read. The next gift? Disney Pirate Hats!
Got them from the Disney Store. We saw them while we were out Christmas Shopping. This was a last minute addition to the hunt. My DW told me in that silent language that parents and Navy SEALS use for me to double back and get the hats.
I ask the CM at the store if I can buy the hats, she tells me no, they give them away free for every $50 purchased. I tell her, Gee thats too bad. You see I am taking my girls on a Disney Cruise and there is a Pirate Party on board (Thanks DIS!) and those hats would be perfect!
The cast member feels pity on our sad author with his sad puppy eyes and asks, How many kids do you have?
Two
Here you go, take two but dont tell anyone
I leave the store triumphant in my find and then think, I can buy a gift card and apply it to my account when I get on board, its not like I am spending any additional money, Ill just take it out of the cruise kitty So I return and do just that, everyone wins! Thanks kind mystery Disney Store Cast Person!
The girls were too excited to let us take a lot of pictures but here is a shot taken later that day.
Mini Me isnt sad or mad she is trying to give us her best pirate face! This gift was double cool because Sweet Childs school has spirit week the first week after Christmas Break and one of the days is Pirate Ninja Day! Ill post a shot of her later but for now, the last clue!
You found many clues but there is just one more,
To Find the Last Clue open the Front Door!
See you nest week with the final clue and the final official installment of the PTR only 10 days till our sail away date!

my name from the upstairs bathroom! I go up there to find her in a compromising position and Mini Me standing in the bathroom with her snorkel set on. 
She had walked up the stairs with the fins on! We the kids finally took them off, they were dancing and twirling in their Minnie Dresses they would not take them off!
The girls would give it out to their friends, our friends, the mail lady, Jehovahs Witnesses, anyone! When asked if they were worried about giving it all away, their response, Its okay, we can get more on our Bahamas Disney Cruise (what they call it!)! 
and every few minutes they come out wearing a different outfit saying, We can wear this on our cruise! After about the fifth outfit, I go back to their room and comment in my overly dorky dad/man way of observing things, Uh guys, its only a three night cruise! 
My wife gives me the, I know that look but the fashion divas are loose and there is no stopping them! look. These girls are going to go through more cloths changes than a rock star in a concert! We winnow the outfits down to a respectable size but my wife still feels it is too much. I remember the tip sheet said pack what you need and take out half! (OOOOHHHH she was listening!) I relent, its only a three day cruise so we can probably get away with more stuff
