Luck O' The Irish

Happy St Patrick's Day. Our children are named Connor and Liam Parish, but really, they are not any significant amount of Irish. My grandfather says both of their names sound like Irish Catholic priests. I wonder what he will say when we name our third son Cohen:). We enjoyed a beautiful St Patrick's Day here, complete with blue skies and 70 degree weather. Here is a picture story of our day.

Sometime in the night, Lucky the Leprechaun came to our house to visit. He left a note in Connor's lunchbox and switched around his food a little. Those leprechauns are tricky!



Both boys were appropriately decked out in green for the day (can I blame the giant pile of junk on the counter on Lucky the Leprechaun too?)


School was held at a park that day where it was rumored Leprechauns hang out. Of course, we had to go on a Leprechaun search to confirm or deny this rumor. (Connor is holding my good friend Lisa's daughter, Juliet's hand. She was in our group that day and Connor was making sure she didn't get lost on the search.)


We found the Leprechaun's treasure!

All in all, it was a great day. Even this little Leprechaun thought so!


Loves to all!

PS- A big thanks to my favorite red-head, Jenner, for doing the fancy new blog header. I think she was tired of hearing me complain on our daily emails about having trouble with it. Thanks Jenner, you really are my BFF:).
