Treasure Hunt

A couple of weeks ago Nick went to father & son camp with our stake. 
I spent the weekend with my parents; I didn't want to be home all by myself. Scary! 
Saturday morning I went to yard sales with my parents!

&& I picked up this beauty from 1942


When I brought it home Nick was impressed, but he had a completely different idea for it than what I had in mind.

Nick:  Whoa! It looks like a pirate treasure chest! ... I have an idea! Let's put treasure in it, bury it in the backyard, and make a map leading to it!!!
Me: ummm ... no

I quickly dragged it into the garage and got to work. 

Here's what I came up with: 






Now we have a cute little "treasure chest" to put all our games in!
