St. Patrick's Day was on a Sunday this year, which was cool because we had an entire weekend to celebrate it! I put the boys in GREEN for school for Friday...

Saturday morning breakfast started off with GREEN food! We had green eggs and green milk.

Then we got dressed in green! This includes the awesome leprechaun hats. ;)

Silly little leprechauns |
Then I forced them to do our annual 3 leaf clover picture. I just love it.
For Saturday afternoon we went downtown for a big St. Patrick's Day festival with some friends. There was cotton candy, green water fountains, beer (for adults) and sunshine. Lovely day.

Then we walked around downtown a little just to see what was going on. There were lots of people out and about!
Saturday night dinner consisted of corned beef sliders and sauteed cabbage (and Guiness, for adults). Yum!

Irish food |
On Sunday morning, we had more green milk and we had green pancakes for breakfast! Then we went to church and had a relaxing afternoon at home.

The last green look of the weekend - matching polo shirts for church.

William really loved the hat! |
Sunday night dinner was shepherd's pie, of course, with a side of broccoli...and green milk.
When Monday morning rolled around, I was glad not to have to put green food coloring in anything else. The boys were wondering why their milk wasn't green! ha!
