St. Patrick's Day!

we had a great St. Patrick's Day (week) celebration!
since it's Ireland week in homeschooling, we decided to just make all week, St. Patrick's week!

we kicked it off with a church potluck on Saturday with tons of games.
sack races, bobbing for apples, hot potato, musical chairs, and more!
the sweet, sweet youth of our church just love michael (and jack!) and since he was a little too young to play most of the games, they really helped him out!
he even won two games!

picture time!
*no clue why daddy was holding mv like that.  poor kid.*

on the actual day, we had spinach pancakes and green milk for breakfast...

a green buffet for lunch...

and a really silly dinner :)

all week, we did St. Patrick's day crafts like rainbows...

the Holy Trinity on a shamrock...just like the real St. Patrick!

a textured shamrock!

handprint leprechaun...

and we even grew some clover in St. Patty's hats!

a great week of green celebrations!
