St. Patrick's Day {2016}

It's always fun to be festive on St. Patrick's Day.  This year, we had 3 cousins sleep over the night before. When all of the kiddos finally made their way out of bed, I made some green pancakes and green eggs.  It got washed down with green juice. Yum!

Here are 7 hungry cousins.

Cousin sleepovers are always so much fun.  I'm always amazed at how much noise two boys can make.  They were so loud and I have to say that I love it (Well, I love it until it hits midnight. ha ha!)!  The girls, well once the little ladies are fast asleep, are usually really quiet. Aunt Kary and Aunt Jenn came by to pick up Emily, Stephen, and Sarah before lunch. We spent the rest of the day resting.  We were all pretty tired, but we couldn't skip a few St. Patrick's Day pics in the afternoon.  I love my ladies in green.

I feel so lucky that I'm their mom.

Let's take a little look at St. Patrick's Day Past.  Here are Evan and Payton with their friends Jesse and Katelyn.

St. Patrick's Day 2010, was my first St. Paddy's Day as a mommy of three.  This is one of my favorite pictures from those two years.

In 2011, we went out to eat on St. Patrick's Day.  My little crew was too cute!

In 2012, we celebrated our first St. Patty's Day as a family of six.  For reasons I will NEVER understand, I thought black and white photos made sense. ha ha ha!

In 2013, St. Patrick's Day fell on a Sunday.  I realized that Karsyn didn't have a green dress, so Daddy came to the rescue.  He ran off to the store and this was the only dress that he could find that had any green.   This was the best picture that I could take that day. ha ha!

St. Patrick's Day 2014 - I mean, I just LOVE this picture.  

2015 was an unlucky picture year. That's all I'm going to say about that. LOL!

 And that brings us to St. Patrick's Day 2016.

 I hope you had a lucky one!!!
