St. Patrick's Day







It's a busy week filled with all kinds of holidays, spring break, and routine activities. So, we've been trying to do some holiday things. Since Monday was St. Patrick's Day there's no better way to start the day than with some green pancakes and green milk. At first I think the kids thought that Mom was crazy, but they were all gone when breakfast was over.



Since it was Monday that also meant it was family home evening night and Mom had the treat. So I had the kids help me and we made some yummy easter egg nest cookies to eat. Ethan and Alys had fun mixing stuff up and plopping their cookies onto the cookie sheet. They each got to choose which color they wanted to make. Little Benjamin was still sleeping at the time so he missed out on helping make them. I guess it didn't matter much because when it came time for treat all he ate was the chocolate egg. Anyway, we had a fun time and have some other activities planned for Easter coming up this weekend. Looks like it will be busy! Hope you all had a great St. Patty's Day!
