Happy St. Patrick's Day





We went to Houston for Spring Break to hang out with my mom and in laws for the week. So our St. Patrick's Day we got to wake up at Grandma's house. Which is so fun, because Grandma Marilyn's house is "our house" according to my kids. Last summer when we moved in for a few months I explained to Brent that this was going to be "our house" for a little while. So our first day we were there, Brent greeted my mom at the door when she came home from work and hugged the door frame and said, "Grandma, this is MY House now." She got a kick out of it.
So this time when we got to my moms, Brent went around saying remember when we did this... remember when we lived here mom. It was cute that they have so many fun memories there.

So for St. Pattie's day we woke up and the goofy leprechaun sent the kids on a scavenger/ treasure hunt for a treat and then they got to go to the donut shop. Later on in the morning (because Brent likes to have 2 breakfasts) the leprechaun turned the eggs and milk green.
Peyton was so hilarious... she LOVES scrambled eggs and so she got some of the green eggs too. But she totally snubbed them and made her yucky noise when she doesn't want to eat/ drink something and started to toss them on the floor. Such the food snob. So I had to make her normal scrambled eggs that she welcomed and ate them right up.

We made these fun shamrocks for our craft and made some extra for our friends the Allen's that we met at the park that day. I found the idea on my new favorite site called MADE. It has so many fun ideas!
