Saint Patrick's Day


We have had a busy spring and have lots of blogs to post so in order to catch up, this blog will be a quick one. 
The kids insisted on sleeping in green because the girls had heard a friend say that a leprechaun will pinch you if you are not wearing green on Saint Patrick's Day.  I told them I thought that was only during the daytime but I couldn't change their minds!
Their was a web of yarn that led to each of their Saint Patrick's Day treats.  There was a small bucket with gold coins, tattoos, chocolate, 1 balloon, and a couple of Euro.
Breakfast consisted of some shamrock pancakes, a green apple drink and irish oatmeal.

For some great Irish stories, read Tales from Old Ireland.
We ended the day making potato print shamrocks.
Some highlights of the day:

I feel sorry for my boys that they didn't have you for a Mom. Their luck of the Irish ended at the front door, although we DID try to provide green beer on St. Paddy's day...

Love to all!! Aunt Kitty
