The kids were so excited for their St. Patrick's Day scavenger hunt at preschool. Their excitement made me realize that I needed to step up my game...However, don't be fooled--all of this prep happened in about 15 minutes at 11pm the night before...

| Before preschool |
 |
| Leprechaun footprints |
 |
| morning treats (all leftover from Halloween--tricky leprechaun) |
 |
| I would not have colored the toilet water, but they heard of this happening at other houses and they were totally expecting it |
 |
| definitely the hit of the morning |
 |
| lucky charms with green milk. I dyed it right under their noses...but they didn't notice. neither one of them would try it until I did. Rachel took the longest and waited until we all ignored her before she ate it. who knew? |
You can't tell from the pictures, but all the girls had matching ribbons. And why oh why do I not have a pic of the big kids in their green? And I was mad because I went to three different stores and only found one green onesie...so we had to be creative and make our own.

| Some of us had really good afternoon naps |
 |
| Some of us didn't |
We went to the Fitz's house for corned beef and cabbage. I wanted to take more pictures, but a certain baby wouldn't let me. But it was a fun time. We would have enjoyed the holiday no matter what, but it definitely makes it more fun to be Irish!
And...Memory Lane Ep 5
From our trip to Ireland in 2006...

Royce told me that some people put tootsie rolls in the toilet on St. Patricks Day. I hadn't heard of the green food coloring. I think it's all kind of strange quite frankly. But those are some darling kids in green outfits!
Nothing better than kissing a stone that millions of others have kissed....blah!
