Sneaky Leprechaun's....

We had some pretty sneaky leprechaun's visit us during the night. Caleb was looking for them high and low because he wanted to squeeze one. It was cute! I think he was more excited to wake up from the disarray of the leprechaun's then he was on Christmas morning. He just kept repeating that he couldn't believe it all. They left shamrocks all over the hallway, walls and ceilings. trails of gold chocolate coins and confetti were left all over the house. They turned our milk green, the toilet water green, they left Lucky Charms and Princess and the Frog. Bailey woke up late but was so excited to see the movie. I made little bags for the kids and Tommy filled with green skittles, stickers, necklace's, balloons and Tommy got Apple Beer. Caleb quickly reminded everyone that we had to wear green. Caleb had preschool and had a great time finishing their rainbow pots with gold coins, coloring leprechauns and making a fun little shamrock hat. We had lunch with Tommy outside and then came home and spent some more time outside,watched Tiana and then headed to my parents to have our annual St. Patrick's Day dinner; Corned beef, cabbage, potatoes and carrots, cornbread and then Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Pies. Aunt Heater and Uncle Kyle brought green sugar cookies that were a hit with the kids. It was a very busy and fun filled day! Caleb couldn't stop talking about the sneaky leprechaun's :) Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

Love the Lucky Charms and toilet water (I haven't done either of those before---we have had glitter and green milk in our home.) Fun gifts and your kids look so cute. Like I have said before, you are fantabulous!!
