We're feelin' the luck of the Irish!

We love St. Patrick's Day!! We celebrate it pretty much from March 1st-17th...much the same way we celebrate Halloween the whole month of October, haha! A funny little leprechaun left hidden surprises every day, and Derek was SO excited every morning to look for the green clover and the surprise! The leprechaun left us these awesome green shirts!
I love these smiles!!
They are so sweet!!
We also made rainbow cupcakes, which are kind of a pain - but definitely worth it! They look so cool when they're done!!
And we made these little "leprechaun treats!" Derek always loves to help in the kitchen, and these were a perfect project for him - he could pretty much do everything himself!

We also enjoyed watching Darby O'Gill and The Luck of the Irish! The only sad part was when Derek woke up on the 18th and said "I'm gonna go look for the clover!" and I had to tell him there probably wasn't one since St. Patrick's Day was over.....Hopefully the leprechaun will come back next year!!

Looks like you guys all had a really great St.Patricks day! I always think of you on St.Patrick's day! Miss you guys so sooo much! Wish we could do fun things like bake those rainbow cupcakes together! Love you!
