We had a fun fun day here wearing green and watching for leprechauns! It started with Adam's making green Cream Of Wheat for breakfast and everyone wearing green, of course! Britain and Kalixta wanted to make a leprechaun trap. Adam helped them set it. They got a treasure chest and put fake gold coins in it.
Ariana with the treasure chest! Can you tell it is bright outside?! It is gorgeous here!!
Adam rigged a string and stick to hold the lid open. He told the girls that he would hid and pull the string when the leprechaun tried to take the gold!
Ariana covered him all up before we went to the park!
Adam waiting for the leprechaun!
By the time we got home from the park Adam had caught a leprechaun, but that crazy leprechaun tricked him and got away! He took our gold too but left us a treasure chest full of green goodies!
The kids loved everything about it! They are already planning next year's trap!
We had a delicious dinner of corned beef, green beans, green grapes, green mashed potatoes and green kool-aid. That was followed by a great green cake!
It was quite a day!! Hope you all had a
Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

That is way too cute! And him covered up in a blanket is pretty darn funny!
I would say that you got a good trade though. Those goodies look fun!
I came over from Be Different Act Normal. I am so glad to know that green koolaid still exists. I remember that was the big deal when I was growing up, that my mom would make green koolaid for us on St. Patrick’s Day! Kelly
So cute! I love this and your decorations. I am so boring, which I am reminded of often when I visit your blog. 🙂 I’ll just start sending my kids to your place for holidays. 😉
Wow! My kids got Lucky Charms and an IOU for next year. Poor lads…
