Happy St. Patrick's Day!

St. Patrick's Day is one of those funny little holidays that I typically don't think much about or anticipate, but it is always one of the most fun days. After I got home from work, we searched the front yard for Leprechaun treasure, because after all, they tend to drop stuff when they are in a hurry to run off with treasure. We found a plentiful bounty of chocolate coins under bushes, in trees, and in the rocks. We also found some quarters and pennies hidden around the house that the Leprechauns had hidden. Daddy even found green rice pudding in the refrigerator! We ended up the evening with a very traditional St Patrick's day feast at El Puente (Mexican food) because none of us felt like cooking at the end of the day. We enjoyed the beautiful weather and are looking forward to it sticking around hopefully soon!
