St. Patrick’s Day

We had a super fun St. Patrick’s Day! The kids woke up and had rainbow pancakes!

Tori thought the pancakes were amazing!!

We were supposed to have opening ceremonies for the boys’ baseball but it rain and all that got canceled! The kids were a little bummed and a little bored since they couldn’t go outside and play!

We made the best of it and had a green lunch!!

We HAD to make a leprechaun trap! We have done that the last couple years and that sneaky leprechaun always gets away! Kalixta read a book about how to catch leprechaun so she helped her Daddy make the trap! We had to make it inside because of the rain!

Kalixta found gold necklaces to trick the leprachaun! She also drew the leprachaun pictures and made him a few bookmarks!!

Daddy borrowed Ariana’s special St. Patrick’s Day hat she made at school and hid out waiting for the leprechaun to show up!

We didn’t wait long! That leprechaun snuck in and tried to take everything! Adam caught him but he somehow dropped the gold and got away! He did take all of kalixta’ s gifts she made him! And he left the kids a lot of green goodies and Lucky Charms!!

We ended our green day with corn beef and cabbage and asparagus, since the kids are not fond of cabbage, and green shamrock shakes!!! As Ariana said it was the, “BEST green St. Patrick’s Day EVER!!!!”

    You’re so much fun!!! I also like the pic of Adam hiding. 🙂 St. Patty’s is kind of forgotten here since it’s Paul’s birthday …
