A Favorite Past Time

Yesterday I got to help Mrs. Kook during one of her school activities.  At first, I was not interested at all, but then I realized what we were doing - barter and trade!  We pirates have always enjoyed this kind of thing!  Trading something we didn't want for something we wanted or needed was always the greatest day ever.  I would get rid of some old plank that some new guy needed and would walk away with a brand new anchor.  It was great!  Check out the picture below to see me in action yesterday.

Do you see those great sticky note holders Mrs. Kook made?  I am thinking of making one (with her help, of course) to send to my mom for Mother's Day.  Although I don't really see the use behind sticky notes, all of those ladies seemed to really enjoy them, so I figure my mom will love them just as much.  Mrs. Kook gave me the directions to make them, but being a pirate and all, I kind of lost them.  If I hadn't, I would've loved to have shared them with you all.  I'm sure you could find them online somewhere.  I would highly recommend trying to find out how to make them and doing it for your own mother.

We got all sorts of goodies, including a package of Reese's Peanut Butter cups and an awesome thing of bubbles.  Can you believe I had never had a Reese's cup or played with bubbles before?  Neither could any of the ladies in her class, but I loved every minute of it when we got home!  I would love to do it again some day!

It's time for me to head to bed, so as always... stay tuned for more of my amazing land adventures!
