Happy Green Day! I mean St. Patrick's Day! Neil absolutely loves the color green, so today was fantastic for him! He couldn't believe all the cool green things that were going on. Someday I will tell him about being Irish and about how we actually took him to Ireland. But for now, we'll stick with the "green day".
This morning started off very Irish with a traditional breakfast of Lucky Charms. What!?!! Oh, the blasphemy. Sorry Mom. We don't like blood pudding with tomatoes. Anyhoo...those were magically delicious. The kids were really excited to dress in all their new swag from Grandma's package. Neil loved his shirt with the "green creeper". They all went off to school with special treats to share with their classes.
Then, Chris and I went out for breakfast. It was so nice to get out sans kids for a meal. After running errands, swim lessons, and shopping the kids were all home from school. Our weather was gorgeous today so we had to go play the afternoon away. It was really great to be outside and soak up the sunshine. We have to take it when we can because guess what? We have snow in the forecast again! Grr! I'm really ready for spring to take over for good.
We played outside for a long time, then came in to make our green dinner. This year it wasn't very exciting, or Irish. We had green pesto noodles with peas. It was tasty and green at least. And who doesn't love a green bath? It was a good day! Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone!
