St. Patty's Day

Another Green Day,

Another Year Older.

I tried to avoid my birthday this year

by celebrating St. Patty's Day with the kids instead!

And conveniently Lucky the Leprechaun

snuck into our house Friday night

and played his silly pranks all over! 

  

  

Then they found last set of footprints on the fridge.

And  there within was the Pot of Gold!

They took .02 seconds to shove their mouths full of breakfast chocolate!

Anden was concerned that Lucky might have left him a gift too.

I admitted that I think I saw Lucky running across the yard in disguises this morning.

So we set off outside on a hunt to find him

or anything else he might have left!

And yes I threw on an ounce of festive green!

And wouldn't you know it.

Lucky did leave his disguises behind!

Then we moved on to birthday silly string! 

Then we played a "fun" clean up game!

After our morning Lucky Adventures,

we headed to the local donut shop for some more sugar!

Of course the festivities also continued for lunch.

We had Lucky Pasta.

(compliments of my Mom!)

Then we played at home the rest of the day.

Until we eventually met up with Luke & Mel for dinner!!

We love having family in town!

And it made it extra special to spend my birthday with them!

And then for my final wish,

I asked for just one little cute picture of me & the kids.

Better luck next year?

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
