Happy St. Patrick's Day! 
Today was St. Patrick's Day and although we are not Irish, I thought it would be fun to celebrate with the kids by doing lots of green things. We started the day with green pancakes and green milk. Both Parker and Eden thought the pancakes were pretty cool!
Lunch consisted of almost all green foods, including green jello, green (sour cream and onion) chips, green apples, green grapes, green beans, and kiwi. We also had grilled cheese sandwiches in the shape of shamrocks.
After lunch, we made shamrock cookies. As much as I hated it, I think Parker and Eden enjoyed eating the cookie dough as much as they enjoyed cutting out the cookies.
After the kids got up from their naps, we decided to take them to Jumpin' Apes to bounce off some of their energy. Although Lily was too little to jump, she had a great time hanging out in her stroller!
We had dinner at Cici's and then came home to decorate our cookies. 
I had a great time trying to make today a fun and special day for the kids. It's always nice to have an excuse to do something out of the ordinary. Hopefully they made some fun, green memories too!
