Celebrating St. Patrick's Day

For those of you looking for fun idea's of things to do with your kids today, you've come to the wrong place.  Check out this fun idea from Amy at The Idea Room instead.  If I were going to do something for my kids today, this would be it.

Between Dillon and Todd's birthdays, and Caleb's coming up in a couple weeks, I'm all partied out.

(Really the part that I love is collecting all the idea's...I only carry them out for my kids' sake)

When I lived in Logan, my friends and I had a tradition of getting together on St. Patrick's Day for a pot-luck lunch.  We brought Irish food, or green food, or WIC beans.  It didn't matter.  It was just fun to get together (miss you, Toni!)

I keep wanting to do that here, and carry on the tradition, but I didn't think of it until this morning and I'm afraid it's too late.

Besides, today is MY day.  My favorite color is green, and I gave birth to tricky little red-headed boys. And it's snowy today, which has nothing to do with anything but it makes me want to curl up by the fire and read a book.

So that's what I'm going to do.

When I finish the book, I think I might sew.  Something fun--something for me.  Or maybe I'll take a nap.

I think I have a new favorite holiday.
