Happy St. Patty's Day

We hope everyone is having a wonderful green day. I love St. Patrick's Day. It was always one of my favorite days when I taught kindergarten. Since I don't teach anymore I thought I would have some fun with the kids instead.
All dressed up and nowhere to go. We were planning on going to the St. Patrick's Day parade and festival in Henderson, but the weather was super yucky.

When we woke up we noticed some green footprints leading into the workout room.

Our leprechaun only ate a few bites of his cupcake. He left us some yummy gold coins and two new DVD's.

What lucky kids!
Green smoothies and green eggs for breakfast. yum!

Rainbow Cupcakes

We decided we needed something to lure a leprechaun to the house on St. Patrick's Day. We decided on rainbow cupcakes. Luckily I had two great helpers to make them with me.

We had fun mixing the colors.
So colorful.
They are getting bigger.
The boy loves cupcakes.
The finished product. Our leprechaun left the gold coins for us. I thought they made the cupcakes extra special.

Floyd Lamb State Park

We went to a new park the other weekend. It was a 45 minute drive, but worth it. The park was awesome. Ducks, picnic, walking, beautiful day, etc. It's days like this that I love Vegas.






Aubree's Birthday

We have been to about 7 birthday parties in the last 2 months. It seems like everyone we know was born in February or March. I haven't been posting about them, but this party the other week was so much fun. It was at My Gym. It is a gymboree type place. The kids had a super time and we can't wait to go back again.

Margaritaville

We met Cousin Ryan, Aunt Cindy, Nana, and Pa at Margaritaville for lunch yesterday. We got to sit in a super cool boat and eat lunch.

Love

I love it when they hold hands. It makes my heart smile.

Spring!

We blinked, and now it is springtime around here. The trees are in full bloom and the kids are in love with all the flowers on them.
My cuties sitting on the park bench.

Taylor is getting very brave these days on the playground equipment.
She picked some flowers off on of the trees "for her wedding"
The pink flowers from the plum trees are our favorite.
My handsome boy. He loves to sit at the top of slides. Doesn't love going down, just wants to sit at the top of them.
