St. Patrick's Day!


Joel made several leprechaun traps this year. We all made at least one. It was so much fun planning how we might catch one of those crafty little creatures! Unfortunately, they sprung our traps and escaped. However, they definitely caused some mischief while they were here.




We found tiny green footprints on the counter, on my mixer, on the traps, and most hilariously, on the toilet lid and flusher!
They left some candies for the kids and a few pieces of gold, which turned out to be painted rocks. Joel hammered them to be certain. He had learned on Ruff Ruffman that in order to be real gold the rock must be opaque (his word) and able to be flattened with a hammer.


I had so much fun making Kaylee a Valentine's Day dress that I had to make her one for St. Patrick's Day too! The boys had t-shirts that we stamped with shamrocks.

Top o' the mornin' to you!!!
