Little Leprechauns;

For St. Patrick's Day, my boys made treasure chests... a few years ago. They hide their treasure chests outside by the light of the moon the night before St Patrick's day. The leprechauns find them during the night and hide them... but they leave a trail of green clovers so the boys can find their treasures. (if you look really close, you will see a green clover on the ground)
They found their treasure boxes in grandma's room filled with candy... and they each got a new book too!
We had green waffles with green syrup for breakfast!

And, of course, I have to have a picture of them in their st. patty's day shirts!
Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

If you want your kids to get up at 6:30 in the morning, do this...

Read this story to them the night before St. Patrick's Day.

Have them paint their own treasure boxes for FHE.
Lead a trail of green foliage all over the house that they have to follow to find their treasure.
Make them drink a "green cow" for breakfast.
And green pancakes with green syrup for dinner.
(Terek gets green peas)
Have them make a giant St. Patrick's Day cookie!!!  

And here it is almost 9:00 and I'm blogging instead of making them go to bed!!!  I guess I had better get on that!
