This St. Patrick's Day has been a lot of fun. We had Jessi sleep over last night. The kiddos were all pretty worn out from our zoo day yesterday, so they slept in this morning. After they woke up, Addi and I whipped up a green breakfast. Addi was amazed with the green pancake batter.
Green pancakes, green scrambled eggs, and a banana made for a yummy St. Paddy's Day breakfast....even if it didn't look too pretty.
I always try to do a sibling picture for the holidays. Last year, I got a great picture nearly every time. This year, I think I'm going to have to learn some new tricks. Here's the best two. (Payton and Jessi had to borrow shirts from Evan.)
We tried one with Jessi too.
After trying to take a pictures, we headed to the movies. I was so excited to see our Daffodils in bloom!
We went to see Big Hero 6 at the dollar movies. We love to go on Tuesdays, because it's 75 cent day. =) Evan, Payton and Jessi really enjoyed the movie. Addi didn't get into as much as they did, but she like it. Karsyn got kind of bored.
After the movie, we picked up Papa Gene for lunch. We went out for pizza. We decided to take our left overs to Grandma Shirley and Grandpa James. Grandma has lost all of her hair due to radiation treatments. I was a little worried how she would be feeling about that. When we got to her house she had a smile on her face and such a peace about her. If cancer is trying to scare her or shake her, it just isn't working. I know she's laying all of her cares upon the Lord and He is keeping her close. The kiddos really enjoyed our visit there. We had to leave, because Evan had soccer practice. It's been a really good day! Now, to take a look back at St. Paddy's Day Past.

You definitely got better pics of your kids this year than I did. Mine are not cooperating! Mattox is the only one cooperating lately. Haha! I love how you all celebrated. I want to take Evan to see that movie soon, but it might have to wait until it comes out on video. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures! It looks like you had a great day and that you're having a fun Spring Break!!! I can't wait to hear about the upcoming surprise you mentioned! XOXO
ReplyDeleteOkay, so I can't even get good pictures of my TWO kids so I'm amazed you get pics of your four with everyone looking at the camera! Also, I love your green breakfast. I might have to remember that for St Patrick's Day next year.
