St. Patty's Day

We had a little green theme going on the 17th, mostly just because it's fun, not because we actually recognize St. Patrick's Day or really know much about it. Daddy tried to school us a bit on the history of the day.

I found some St. Patty's Day themed activity pages for the girls and printed those out right away in the morning. They colored and cut-out, telling stories about their art the entire time. I had no idea they knew so much, relatively speaking, about shamrocks, leprechauns, and pots of gold:)



Joey wore his green well.



Sylvia, being our typically non-compliant child, chose to wear a purple outfit on our green-themed day, but did allow green "hair-tingies".



Olivia, naturally, would have liked to take the green theme to the next level by accompanying her green shirt with green pants, socks, unders, and shoes. Sorry dear, there are limits:(



Maybe I should have made a green meatloaf for supper...I'll be more prepared next year!
