St. Patrick's Day!

This is how we do it:
We decorate a box:


And leave it in the moonlight for the leprechauns. Sometimes we write them random notes asking what their signal is.
Then we have to wake up and follow their footprints (yep, black this year. Looks like these leprechauns stepped in ink).
They leave a lot of different trails so we have to try to find the right one that leads to our treasure.


Score! Victory!
Checking out the loot (Sammie was still sleeping).


Happy St. Patrick's Day? (I told Clayton to put on pajamas and he came down with only bottoms on. I thought this wouldn't start happening until he was pre-teen/teenager. Heaven help me.)
Yum! Oven pancakes! Wait. Oh those leprechauns! They turned our breakfast green!
We wear our new green outfits with pride. (That look on her face is killing me. She's trying to "pose".)
Since the weather is decent out, we go outside to launch stomp rockets.
Love this action shot!
And play with bubbles.
Josie and Noah getting along? Priceless!
Then we finish it off with a yummy dinner of corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, and carrots (only yummy to mom and dad though - but those kids were nuts, that stuff was delish)!

It was a good day! Happy St. Patrick's Day!
