Luck o' the Irish

Happy St. Patties Day!


Yet another year, another leprechaun trap, and no caught leprechaun.
Christian preparing his trap. This has been a yearly event for the last 4 years. He has studied leprechauns extensively and is certain someday he WILL catch one.


I have no clue what this was for but it was important!

And our St Pattie's Day culmination, green shamrock pancakes, green applesauce, and green eggs and ham. The picture does not do them justice. They were greener in real life. I contemplated making it all greener but after the 12th drop of food coloring I started to get sick!

My very favorite part of the whole thing this year was Parker's comment to Christian. Some preface, Christian has thoroughly indoctrinated us on Irish folklore and leprechaun magic.

Christian: "I cannot understand how they are getting out every year."

Parker: "Well you know Christian leprechauns are MAGIC (with much sarcasm) they can get out of traps."

I love that kid! He's all about keeping it real! LOL
