St. Patrick's Day 2015

One of the best things about being a mom is doing ridiculous stuff with/for your kids. As the kids were getting ready for bed on Monday night, I told the kids that were were going to see if we could trap a leprechaun. We made a plan, the kids ignored it and decorated the box like they wanted. It can be so hard to let go of how I want things done {even silly things like a trap} The kids had a blast!

In the morning they could not wait to come out and see if their invention had worked. 

Look at that bedhead of Aubrey's -- YIKES! 

It didn't work but that lucky little leprechaun left the kids some gold chocolate coins. As we ate our Lucky Charms for breakfast, Aubrey swears she saw a little something in our front yard. 

After we finished up with school and lunch, I asked the kids if we could take some pictures. After a few grumbles, they agreed. I'm must say, these are some of my favorites!!  

Aubrey looks so big in this one. 

I realized I didn't get a shot of just him so before dinner, I was able to snag one of him.

We met up with a friend at the park. It was such a nice day outside. It wasn't too hot, it was pretty perfect. The kids all enjoyed soaring through the air. 

Today is also Mr. Austin's due date! Little guy didn't make his appearance for a few more days!

How was your Saint Patty's day? How did you celebrate? I'd love to hear about it.
