Our St. Patrick's Day!

Oh how we love this day! I know we don't celebrate it in the traditional way.... drinking and partying all night.... but we make it fun in our own way! The girls woke up to find that the milk in the fridge had turned green! Those sneaky leprechauns did it, and also left the girls new shamrock bows for their hair and a pretty little live shamrock plant for me!

Ashlin had preschool and enjoyed the festivities there. When she got home it was lunch time. After they ate, Mommy surprised them with a special St. Patty's Day cupcake with shamrock rings on them.

Here are a couple of the cute St. Patrick's Day projects the girls made.

Our cute green kids!

This boy is such a goof!

And these two are so cute!

My pretty little plant =)

Later, we set the table for our Green Dinner, and I got things cookin' in the kitchen! We invited Chelsea and Dave over with the boys.

On the menu:
Green spinach salad (made by Chels and Dave)
Green Jello with bananas in it
Green dinner rolls
Green cheese tortellini with creamy alfredo sauce

Yum yum!

A little while after dinner, the kids were playing out in the yard and noticed a green package sitting on the front porch. They rushed in with it and a note that had been left by some mysterious visitors.

It was white "magic powder" and when we mixed in the white milk, it turned GREEN! It was a delicious drink for dessert!

The kids had fun! And so did Mommy!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
