And they came...

Happy Saint Patty's Day

The last couple of weeks have been quite eventful here at the house. We have been preparing up for Saint Patrick’s Day. I am not too sure why I got into so much this year, but it has been so much fun with the kids. The past couple of weeks we have been making homemade decorations (aren’t they the best?).

Tons of glue and tons of glitter. Cailey loved doing the projects and dug right into them. Cayden, on the other hand, dipped his finger into the glue and instantly wanted his finger cleaned.

March 17th, the leprechauns came! Cody and Cailey were supposed to make a trap for the leprechaun, but it just did not happen. However, those sneaky leprechauns came into the house and left the kids a few treats. Cailey was so excited…The leprechaun’s name was Riley and he left a shamrock behind with his name on it.

However, Cailey’s logic is beginning to come into play and she started to think that the leprechaun never left the house. So we had to search the whole house (even under her bed) and make sure there were no leprechauns. But, that was not enough! I had to bring out the “magic” leprechaun spray (a spray bottle with nothing it) and let Cailey spray the whole house down so leprechauns will not get in! A very serious matter in our house.

Cody even got into the spirit of things...

For dinner we topped it off with: Green “pigs in a blanket” for the kids, green mashed potatoes, and green milk.

It was a great night!
