St. Patrick's Day

We love any holiday, but we especially like to embrace our Irish roots on St. Patrick's Day. The kids were into it this year, which the pinching and leprechauns and all. I had a very busy day at work with decidedly non-festive activities. Nevertheless, I came home to find a full Irish spread of corned beef, cabbage, red potatoes, and homemade soda bread.

Cute kiddos. Even your wall is green! Wow you guys do go all out. Hahaha. My favorite youtube video at this time of year is the one from Mobile, Alabama of the Leprechaun sighting. It's ca-lassic

@Jon - I love the Alabama leprechaun video. Especially the amateur artist rendition.

@Holly - seriously!...and Tori was not just in the bald baby club, she was the poster child for so long!

Such a fun family...you guys are setting great traditions. :)
Tori really is looking taller and thinner...and yes! ...like a little girl. Really miss, miss, miss you guys.
(We will have our corned beef n' cabbage soon, Dad was ill on St. Pat's Day, so he wouldn't have enjoyed it.)

The food sounded delicious! I am dealing with two picky girls at the moment, so I doubt they would eat anything that wasn't macaroni-and-cheese. In fact, they probably wouldn't even eat mac & cheese if I colored it green.
