the countdown begins...

In a mere seven days my man and I have an appointment with this guy...

...seven days, 168 hours, 10,080 minutes, 604,800 seconds...

but who's counting?

Really, it's no big deal.

Really.

st. patty's day ramblings...

I wish I could say I was one of those cool mom's who goes all out for this "special" day (kind of)

The Leprechaun's have made an appearance a time or two in our home in the past, this year they decided they were too tired.

When asked at church on Sunday if the Leprechaun's stopped by Sam announced that they peed in our toilet last year. That's it. That was the only info he gave (sorry Holly). He failed to mention the green footprints ALL OVER THE front porch, entry way, bedrooms & hall leading up to the green pee. Gheesh.

It was fun watching the kids pick green attire this morning. Don't you remember trying to decide whether to go all out or do the whole "I'm wearing green underwear you just can't see it." bit as a kid?

Two boys in this house wore green shirts and one just counted the neon green bracelet he got when we went miniature golfing Saturday. Yep, it's still on. It's really clean, too.

The little girl was so proud of the green outfit she picked out (more LOUD than green, really). Yes, she wore this the entire day. We even went to the zoo. She looked awesome...and she knew it.

Really, this is what St. Patrick's Day is to me.

Another reason to make sugar cookies!

Can you blame me?

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!

"someone"...

...seems to have forgotten that chairs, clothing and paper exist.

(I would have been more upset with this one had I not been so impressed with her ability. Wow.)

l'il casanova...

This kid {Sam} definitely keeps me on my toes.

...and apparently has a way with the ladies.
