St Patrick's Day 2013

 
For St. Patrick's Day, we did a lot of celebrating. Nothing involving a Leprechaun or the Luck of the Irish...just some regular Willetts' fun with a green splash!
The kids woke up to a little box of Green Goodies (again this year)!
 
 
Ella got a gift too and Colin was able to give it her IN PERSON a few days later!
 
 
One evening before St. Patrick's day, this kids helped me decorate. :)  


 
He wanted to make a Leprechaun face...



 
After breakfast, we met Nonnie, Papa, and Aunt Gina at the park for fishing, a picnic and some park time.
 
Papa's fishing buddy, Vahn, caught a turtle and some HUGE cat fish!
 
 
Ava wasn't a fan...
 
Ava fed the ducks, while Colin fished with Papa.


 


 
He caught one! Too bad none of us saw it. :(
We were on a walk with Ava and when we came back, boy, did they have a story for us!
A bird started to go after the fish and swallowed it! So Papa had to run backwards and pull with all his might  to get the fish out of the bids throat. Within all of that, he ran into a trashcan behind him. But...he GOT THE FISH!
 
 
I tried getting a picture of the kids in their green shirts and this was the "best" I got.
 
 
 
We packed a green picnic lunch too.
Shamrock sandwiches, green grapes, sour cream and onion pringles, apple juice in a green box, and lime jello.

 
After lunch we played on the playground for a bit.


 
Miss Ella Baby gave us a St. Patrick's Day Surprise!
She is in an open crib!!!!
 




 
After baby time, we went to Nonnie and Papa's for our traditional St. Patrick's day dinner and dessert.




 
We sang happy unbirthday to Ava. When she saw the pie, she requested candles and that we ding to her. Then she wanted us to sing to Ryan. LOL!
 

 
Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!!

 
I am one LUCKY lady if I say so myself!
