St. Patrick's Day Party
I put together a little St. Patrick's Day Party for Van and his friends. It included lunch, a craft and game, cookies, and a treasure hunt.
For the craft the kids made their own leprechaun puppet.
I was inspired by this cut-out and made a giant leprechaun for a ball toss game.
After lunch the kids were able to frost and decorate shamrock cookies; more frosting ended up in their mouths than on the cookies.
Before the kids all went home they were sent on a treasure hunt to find their goodie bags. They had to follow a trail of gold coins that led them to the leprechaun's pot.
Judging by the good time had by all, I think it's safe to say the party was a success.

Little Visitors
We had our annual visit from the leprechauns this year. Van was excited about his little green goodies.

Happy Birthday
Today is my mom's birthday. She's a wonderful mother and a fantastic grandma; my boys simply adore her. It has been a great blessing having her so close during this transitional time. I will be forever grateful.
