Ahoy, Ye Land Lubbers

Terday be talk like a pirate day and we be lovin it.

 We dressed in our most piratey garb and set sail for treasure Island.

We started with the little people pirates searchin for the bootie.  Then took our maps outside in search of our own treasures.

 Merry double checked the map to be sure they weren't just sailing in circles.

 Then we dropped anchor and counted out paces.

The treasure was hidden well but are maps were good and we searched diligently. 

The treasure was guarded by an old goat but when he saw it was kids that were searching he pointed them to the blue cave. (the treasure was at my dads house so he could see the grandkids all dressed up, Old Goat is a nickname)

 Once back to the pirate hideout they counted their loot.  It was unlucky 13 so quickly they ate one before the ship sank or some equally unlucky disaster.

After a movie break (Veggi Tales' "Jonah" movie) we played a pirate eye patch game ate some more treasure then called it a day.

Later the girls got out the chess board at granddads, it seemed like a piratish game to play, "mate.'

You may have noticed the supper cute pirate maps the kids were toting around.  Those were made Friday (so they would be dry for today) following the instructions on  "Alpha Mom"
