Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Yes, this post is a day late, but I just didn't get to it before bedtime last night.  Even if it is 'old news', it's in my head, so here it is!  :)

We started our St. Patrick's day celebration at bedtime Monday night by reading a little about St. Patrick so we'd know what we were celebrating.  I learned some interesting new things!  

Then the boys went to bed wearing green pj's so they'd wake up wearing green.  :)

Of course, no proper St. Patrick's Day celebration is complete without a green breakfast, so I made green shamrock pancakes.  :) 

The afternoon turned out to be good for kite flying, so our new kite took its maiden voyage.  :)

I love this picture!
After supper we went to see our friends whose new baby arrived just 5 days ago!  Alan wanted to help.  :)
If you want the 'baby' of your family to look big, just put them next to a newborn.  Alan went from baby to kid in an instant!

Sorry I don't have a better picture of the star of the hour, the actual baby - after enjoying Alan 'helping' so much and taking a couple of pics of that, I didn't want to keep putting the flash in poor baby's eyes!  :)

And at this moment my boys are out trying the kite again... I think I'll go join them!  Do you ever go kite flying this time of year?
