Krispy Pirates

Kylee read on pinterest about priate day at Krispy Kreme in a past year.  On a designated day you could dress up as a pirate and Krispy Kreme would give a free dozen glazed donuts.  Each pirate needed to have at least 3 pirate items to their costume to get their dozen.  Kylee figured out the 2016 pirate day was coming up on Monday, September 19th.  With Matt's approaching deployment he had a little more flexibility with his schedule and not as many commitments at work.  Thinking it would be our last Monday together, we decided it would fun to get pirate donuts with the kids for family home evening.  The kids scavenged the house for pirate paraphernalia Sunday evening and set it out.  There were even some creative homemade items like Brayden's cut up T-shirt and Julia's paper eye patch.  Krispy Kreme was filled with pirates of all ages.  As you got up to the front of the line, they asked your name and wrote it on a box.  When Asher got up there he told them he wanted a red donut.  As the free donuts were only glazed, and also feeling like we ought to buy something in return for the five dozen free donuts, we also bought an assorted dozen including 7 pirate donuts with red frosting.  Everyone got to eat a cream filled pirate donut while we waited for the boxes of free donuts.  After a stop for dinner at Taco Cabana, we made some deliveries.  Yes, we had dessert before dinner.  Our deliveries were a box to the Moore family and a box to the Herrera family.  The next morning Brayden took a dozen to his bus stop and Kylee took a dozen and a half to seminary.
