Happy St. Patty's

The day finally came. The kids have been looking forward to pinching each other for weeks. But sadly enough they were all wearing green, so nobody got pinched. They even made sure to wear green in their pajamas the night before so they wouldn't get pinched in the morning.

Our good friends, the McKinnons, held a St Patrick"s Day Party. The kids had already worn their green to school on Friday so they weren't sure what to wear the day of. Looking in my own closet with that question in mind I spotted my Blue Bell Fun Run T-Shirt. So we all matched with our green.

We had so much fun at the party. Green, green everywhere. Plenty of balloons,
tattoos, and dress ups. This is their youngest, Laurelyn. I love the glasses girly.
And lots of green food. There was even green bread for the chicken sandwiches. One boy asked if it was moldy, while he was eating it. :)
One family came a little later and brought these awesome wigs for the kids. Nice do London! Green is definitely your color.
We played a couple of games. This was musical shamrocks. Just like musical chairs. The boys had played earlier and got their fill of dancing, but Aspen and Sicily are always up for a bit of music.
I was kind enough to dress up their Newfoundland, Daisy. She held still long enough for us to take a few pictures. Then she bowed her head to get the wig off and ran away.
Hope everyone else had as good of a St. Patty's as we did. Come round next year, I'm told there will be another GREEN party.
