Treasure Chest
Looking down the hallway - Belly of the Ship - that we decorated
The main foyer, main hallway, cafeteria, gym and two auxillary rooms were decorated in a pirate theme for After-Prom. There are games set up for the kids to win "money" to "buy" prizes. Very fun!

Hot tea
My sister, Suzi, our mom, me, my sister, Barb

Sunday, May 9th
*Worked After-Prom (check-in table and prize check table) from 11 pm until 3:30 am.
Me getting ready for my "shift" as a pirate.
ARGGGHHH!
*Helped clean up from 3:30 am until 5:30 am.
*Hung pirate "dummy" in my sister's tree at 5:45 am and DIDN'T get caught! haha
This is the pirate in a hammock swing we used at After-Prom.
Afterwards, he was put in a tree in my sister's yard. LOL
*Got home and went to bed (off and on) at 6 am until about 2 pm. "ZZZZZZZZZZ"
*Received 3 roses and a note from my wonderful son for Mother's Day. It was especially sweet because since he is driving, he was able to come up with my gift by himself, pick it up and spend his OWN money on me. :)

*My son and I ordered chicken parmesan dinners and ate them in the comforts of our own home to celebrate Mother's Day. It was quite lovely even with being so sleep deprived. :)

ReplyDeletePatty, there is a differance in being "religous" and "spiritual". I'll take spiritual anyday.
