St. Patrick's Day

Top of the morning to ya....this post is a lil out of order...we started celebrating St. Patty's Day the Saturday morning before the actual holiday on Monday. These top pictures are from a party at my aunt and uncles house. My cousin was home from college so she wanted to have a lil party and Im always up for holiday gatherings so off we went with our green m&m pretzel treats and our green on.




The hosts of the party!

Julie made a great Irish Beef Stew, Corned Beef and Cabbage, Irish Soda Bread and some yummy green drinks. My mom also brought Irish Soda Bread so we had two kinds and some green rice krispy treats :)


Girls in green!


Our St. Patrick's New Parent Connection Party to start the day off...






Anne had some fun crafts out (coloring pages, finger puppets and make a face on a leprechaun) and great food...fruit in a rainbow form with marshmallows for the clouds which the kids LOVED, muffins with shamrock muffin cups, juice boxes dressed like a leprechaun and lil sandwiches in shamrock shapes. 

On actual St. Patty's Day Linnea came home from school to find lil leprechaun footprints, green toilet water and some gold coins hidden...sneaky lil leprechaun!


We ate our own Irish Beef Stew, Irish Soda Bread and Green Beer for mama and daddy and green milk for the gals...




We also made some mint ice cream for dessert. Gotta love green food coloring, mint extract, andes mint and vanilla ice cream and milk in the blender :)
