Dance a Little Jig

The girls didn't have school on St. Patrick's Day.  Luckily, I was able to find to find a free craft and story time at the Courthouse museum, which was a good thing because the weather was not nice to be outside and we needed to get out of the house.


Checking out the display on old ice cream shops.  Jordan is pretending to eat a fake burger.

I don't know why but the kids loved this car and really wanted to get there picture in front of it so that they "could always remember it."


 I also learned about free Irish music playing that evening.  Luckily, Ken got off work just in time to join us.  The kids had so much fun.  They started dancing to the music and soon others joined.  They ended up all dancing together in a circle.  It was so much fun to watch.  The crowd really got into it and thought the kids were a riot.

Caden and Jordan (I wish I got a better picture of their face-they were smiling from ear to ear).



Caden and Kailyn dancing. Caden couldn't stop laughing.

Here they are dancing in a circle. The adults were trying to get them to dance under their arms and the kids just couldn't figure it out (it was really funny to watch)


Chase just loved playing with the balloons.  He carried it around with him for the next 2 days (even took it to the grocery store) until it popped.  It was so sad to see his little face when his prized balloon was no more.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

So we don't really have any traditions for St. Patrick's Day, although we did have green food all day. For breakfast we had green waffles and green milk; lunch was green yogurt, green grapes, green marshmallows and green water; dinner was green broccoli, green stuffing and green mashed potatoes. Not that appealing looking, especially in a picture, but the kids thought it was a lot of fun.
We also enjoyed a wonderful day outside today. It was almost 70 degrees out. Oh, how I loved being out in the sunshine. Unfortunately, I didn't take the camera with me so I didn't get any pictures. I did get this picture of Chase today while he was sleeping. I don't know if you can tell from this picture but his hands are just hovering in the air. How can he sleep like that? If his hands are in the air is he really relaxed enough to be sleeping?
