st. patrick's day...

Andrew and Adrianna camped in the living room trying to catch leprechauns but again had no success. They woke up to a big mess and found that everything had been dyed green.

 

Andrew refused to drink his green

milk and lucky charms! Good thing his

Meme Trisha was here to spoil  cook him oatmeal!
 She is staying with us over Spring Break since I have to work and Jeremy is leaving for Washington, D.C.

Happy Green Day - May the luck of the Irish smile on you!

XOXO

those sneaky leprechauns...

I worked from home on Friday because Adrianna was out of school for Spring Break. We picked Andrew up early from daycare - right after his St. Patrick Day party. He couldn’t stop talking about the leprechauns that snuck into his classroom… he said “Mom, they made a  HUGE mess and left green foot prints everywhere”!

Adrianna came up with a fun idea to make a Leprechaun Trap– To catch those sneaky leprechauns! 

 

They worked all afternoon creating the perfect trap. I love how Adrianna got super into it & wanted to make everything perfect for Andrew 

All Leprechauns love lucky charms... right?

They camped out in the living room ALL night

with their flashlights

but were unable to catch the little guys...

 

Instead they woke up to this mess & a note saying

"You tried to catch me with you sneaky trap but we got away... I bumped my head on your contraption and lost some coins. Here is a treat for your efforts. Better luck next year"!

Is that not the cutest older sister or what??

weekend + rain = Crafty FUN

This was the perfect opportunity to create St.Patrick's Day crafts!

…and that we did.

Andrew created beautiful Shamrock Art…

Using a green bell pepper {that I cut @ the bottom} & green paint

Adrianna made triangle banners using scrapbook paper, twine and modge podge

& filled the Cloche with foam Shamrocks

{that we purchased from the Dollar Tree} 

For snack - green milk & cool mint oreos!

If you love girl scout thin mints than you MUST try these... they are TO.DIE.FOR

I would love to know what you are doing to get ready for St.Patrick's Day.
