Smith Family St. Pattie's Day

We usually don't do anything special for St. Patrick's Day, but I saw a cute idea online and decided to do it-just changed a bit. That morning, after I didn't get up early and make green pancakes like I was going to, Brayden and I made a Leprechaun Treasure Box. Brayden put it where the sun would shine on it (Leprechauns love the sun since it makes rainbows) so a Leprechaun would come and hide it and maybe leave us a treasure. Well, we waited all morning and into the afternoon (it was a very cloudy day) when finally... The treasure was missing!! We followed the Leprechaun trail up the stairs and into .... the BATHTUB! Inside was 99 pennies and some monster truck stickers- better than gold to my little guy! There was even green pee in the toilet! Brayden kept talking about it and even had to call his dad- and that made a very happy St. Pattie's day to me!



We finished the day with dinner at Costa Vida for Billy's mom's birthday and then came to our house for ice cream and presents. She got lots of help from the kids opening gifts. Happy Birthday Mom! I swear you are getting younger!
