St. Patrick's Day Fun

This year, my girls were fascinated with St. Patrick's Day and what it is all about so we decided to have some fun.  We started the day by making sure we had our green on of course and then ate Lucky Charms for breakfast!  After that we searched for the golden candy the little leprechaun had hidden around the house when he ran through last night (you didn't know leprechauns do that?).

Sophie and Avery painted little buckets to put their candy in, complete with rainbow handles and Avery painted a picture of a leprechaun (if you look closely you can see her handprint is the leprehaun's beard).

Sophie really wanted to try and find a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, but since we didn't see any rainbows today we settled for drinking mint shakes and eating green jello!
