We're Back!!!
We found our 2 Pirate Chests at Michaels! I was looking in the foam aisle and the boys were wandering.

Colton came back with them! He found them in the center aisle with a bunch of other foam creations....a princess castle, a manly castle, and a Pirate Ship! I almost got the ship, but then I wasn't sure what to do with it? It would have to sit on a table. If we ALL got one, we could use it as a centerpiece, then when we got to the restaurant, we would know for sure that we "should" know the people sitting there!

I am so bad at remembering names! Then we found a display of beadmaking stuff. We picked up a 36" gold chain. The brand is Beadelicious. I am hoping this will work to hang the chest. I am pretty sure I'll have to bring the zip-ties to actually hang it from the fish though. I don't think we will make the chests until we get closer to the cruise...or at least until summer. I don't want them to get mashed or dusty before then.
then we were off to Kohls. We got some pretty good deals! I got a pair of Docker shorts...reg $34 for $3.40! SCORE! and of course the rest was stuff for the boys! All toll, 9 items for $82..not too bad!
then we went to IHOP for lunch....with my coupon! It cost us the same to eat there as it would have at McD's! then into Sam's for a few things...OH! And of course, I had my Buy 1 dozen Get 1 dozen Krispy Kreme doughnut coupon, so guess what's for breakfast tomorrow??
thank goodness we are having leftovers for dinner! we didn't get to lunch until after 2.
