Happy St. Patrick’s Day

While we are neither Irish nor Catholic, the children always enjoy the holiday celebrations, so celebrate we did!

Although there are many downsides for a country girl like me living in suburbia, some of good things are the clubhouse and the planned neighborhood activities. (It takes a lot of work out of it for me). And while we intend to have our traditional vegetarian St. Patrick’s Day meal for supper tonight, we celebrated St. Patrick’s Day this past weekend with the neighborhood. There was snack food and fun for the children, including a shamrock hunt, temporary tattoos, and crafts.

This was the day that Lefty found out that Isaac is moving out of the country.
We are all very saddened by the news, but Lefty is taking it especially hard. :(
