I am finally getting around to putting up our St. Patty's Day pictures. We started the day with Kallie, Weston and Jamers discovering all the things that the Leprechauns had done to our house and the kids while we were sleeping. Kallie spent the night the night before and all the kids (Lucy included) had green sparkles in their hair and shamrock kisses on their cheeks. The kids ate breakfast ( but refused to use the green milk) and then we went to the grocery store to prepare for the big dinner that night. Over the past few years we have made some adjustments to the St. Patty's Day meal adding cafe rio pork (in addition to the corned beef), green salad dressing salads ( instead of stinky cabbage), and Leprechaun juice ( green cream soda) to make sure everyone has something that they like. It was really good! Everyone dressed in green ( except for Mike - see his punishment below) and we had a Pot of Gold treasure hunt in the backyard for gold coins. It was a really fun night despite the few bloody injuries we had. Michelle and her kids couldn't make it and we missed them a ton!

So, yes, I'm a blogstalker - I admit. But, I was excited to see a link to your blog on another TX friends'. I knew Tay in High School and at BYU. Such a cute family! (This is why people go private, isn't it...)
