St. Patty's Day

Have I ever mentioned that my kids love holidays? Every holiday? They have been counting for St. Patricks day ever since Valentines Day!

Those darn Leprechauns are so tricky. Hayden & Rylan (and my mom) made a Leprechaun Trap-and it didn't work at all!
The top of the hat has a hole in it and they put some gold coins on top to attract the leprechaun, then if they went up there-they would fall in, but those leprechauns are pretty smart and they didn't fall for it.
They sure messed our house up and left the furniture all crazy, but at least they did leave the boys some candy.
Gosh, if I ever see one of the leprechauns for real, I think I would have to kick their butts for making such a mess of my house!

And then of course we have to eat in the spirit of St. Patrick's Day. For breakfast we always have lucky charms and then for dinner we have a "green dinner". Since I was working this year, we had to have something quick and easy. (Dee opted to eat something else-what a party pooper!-I guess I can't blame him, it looked pretty disgusting). So here is a picture of our delectable dinner, which consisted of: hot dogs, green pickles, green mac & cheese, green cottage cheese and green milk. Yum!
