How I Spent My St. Patrick's Day

Our green holiday was an eventful one. It started out with a plate full of green clover pancakes and yummy sausage - courtesy of Levi who then had to leave courtesy of bedbugs. Next we had a grand parade down main street. As you can see from Rayn's blog, our parade consisted of Hazel's wagon float (Leprechaun Aryn did a wonderful job assuring the safety of our Hazel pot of gold.) Tomie's bicycle float, and the marching band.

On the more mundane side, we went shopping to use our double coupons and Tomas introduced Mario to mashed potatoes.

The evening ended with a truncated scout meeting and a lightening fast trip to the Cedar City library to get Levi's books 1 and 2 of the Mistborn trilogy signed by Brandon Sanderson!

Saturday's adventures began as Hazel, Shaynae, McKinlee, and I raced home from Taya's fantabulous birthday party, grabbed Levi and Tomie, and headed to Springdale for the big parade. We parked out front of Josh and Steph's new shop, the Zion Lyon, and collected vast quantities of candy. Yum!

We had so much fun and are glad we had the chance to make memories with our wonderful family.

Ice Cream and Cousins

When Kasey visited lasterweekend, Grandpa's sent the grandkids and the coin jar to the DQ.

What a crew!

Asher repeatedly tried to lick the ice cream off his arm but kept getting distracted by the black streak of paint. Tasty?


These two are pretty cute, too.

Thanks for a sweet outing Grandpa! We sure love to spend time with cousins!

The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you.

This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make! (Though I hope you will!)
2. What I create will be just for you.
3. It'll be done this year. {might be a little while}

5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.

The catch?
Oh, the catch is that you must repost this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog.
