Kiss Me I'm Irish

Henry wishes you all a Happy St. Pat's Day!

Look Ma!  I caught me a leprechaun!

Green eggs minus the ham!  I scrambled these up but just couldn't go there myself.  I ended up making a second batch of the good ol' yellow kind for me.

We partied at McDonald's playland with our friends Sheli and Maddy.  This pose is so Breakfast Club.  We also had Shamrock Shakes which the kids loved!

Using my zoom, I didn't realize they were all smashing their noses against the plastic until I put them up on the computer.  This could explain why we all have sore throats and colds this week...

Henry is definitely gonna be a ladies man.  Check out his Rico Suaveness.

Totally Random and Misc. Whatnots and Whosits

A little late, but hope you all enjoyed your Valentine's Day!  Nothing says homemade Valentine's Day cards like little white paper doilies!

As we were inside drawing, we heard the tapping of little hooves on the front porch... Goat escape!  Turns out with the wacky warm/cold weather we've been having, the snow is high enough and hard enough for the goats to walk right over the top of the fence in some places.  Here we try to round them up and out of the garage.  They are such lovely little guys but they like to eat our shrubs so back into the pen they go!

Violet is the goat whisperer... or torturer... depends on what mood she's in.

Jere is training Max to retrieve ducks, but I do a little training of my own when Jere's at work.

Charlotte is growing restless this winter.  She can't wait to get out and terrorize the country mice.

This wrestling pic. was on FB, but it's so darn cute.  In all honesty, it looks like he's totally kickin' butt here, but it's just a practice exercise with both kids taking turns learning how to flip someone over or something.  I'm such a proud mama!  Go Henry! 

The kids had a Circus Day at preschool earlier in the week.  There was an elephant rolling a ball, clowns putting out fires, cowgirls, lions and tigers jumping through hoops, a strongman, fancy tightrope walkers, seals, and even a dancing bear!  They had some kids taking tickets at the door, passing out popcorn and a ringmaster announcing all the acts - Very cute!

Guess who the dancing bear was?! :)

and the cutest tightrope walker of all???

Henry's bff, Carter was a lion. 

Dance Circus Bear, Dance!

Circus Day was a lot of fun - we'll definitely have to try to see a real one this summer. Later gators!
