Lepruchans

Yes, they struck our house this year.  Some years we've gotten off the hook.  Maybe the Lepruchans just overlooked us.  Or maybe they were luring us into a false sense of security.  Or perhaps they were just tired from all the work they do all day.  :)  Whatever the case, they got us good this year.

They messed up our kitchen...

 Wrote messages on all our windows and mirrors, and sprinkled gold confetti stars all over the house.

I'm thinking about next year requesting that they just trick us really good and clean the house from top to bottom.  What a trick that would be!  No one would see it coming! :)

And to celebrate our good luck day, we ate rainbow colored pancakes for breakfast.  The lepruchans also left treasure hunts for each person, with a bag of gold (or chocolate candy wrapped in gold paper, which in my book is almost as good!).

We had fun celebrating and all made sure to wear green, even those of us who don't look so great in green.  :)  And Merry Grace won the green award by wearing 11 different shades of green, even down to her socks and panties. :)  Happy St. Patrick's Day, Y'all! :)

Sounds very similar to our St.Patrick's Day. Except for the leprechauns messing up the house. John David took care of that for them. And it's an everyday occurance around here. :)
