St. Patrick's Day

We tried to hard to catch a leprechaun this year. This was our trap. The leprechaun was supposed to climb to the top, try to take the gold but fall in instead.




This is was happened and a few other things like couch cushions turned upside down or picture and books rearranged. Calvin wants to build an even stronger trap next year. We'd better get to work if we are going to make it strong enough for next year.





He color the milk for their cereal green.


He colored the toliet water green. I think he was a little ticked off.

I like the idea of St. Patrick Day. We don´t have that in Germany. But what was the toilet picture for? I just don´t get it.

How fun...Hey, the Leprechaun came to our house too. We didn't catch him again this year, darn it. He was very mischevious as usual and made a mess. However, he didn't turn the toilet water green. I hope he dosen't get any silly ideas. :-)

I used to be fun like you, but I ran out of energy this year. Unfortunately, with both kids staying home from school with sickness, St. Patrick's Day went by unnoticed and uncelebrated. I heard all about the Leprechaun at your house though. Tanner was quite amazed at the toilet water. You are too funny and such a fabulous mom!
