Happy St. Patrick's Day a day late :).

Yesterday was a super busy day for me & I didn't get the chance to blog. So you're getting this today.

We started with our standard green breakfast. This year we had green scrambled eggs,  green biscuits, green juice, bacon & ham.







We decorated the house & made some crafts.





And we made our now traditional rainbow cake ~ only this year we made cupcakes so we could take them to AWANA & share.



We started a new tradition this year & enjoyed the corned beef & cabbage dinner at the American Legion.

All in all it was a keen green day.

And just in case you forgot~ here is your reminder: The world has taken over St. Patrick's Day & made it into a day celebrating Leprechauns & green beer :(    BUT

The truth is St Patrick was a young English boy who was kidnapped & taken to Ireland as a slave. He escaped & returned to his homeland where he chose to dedicate his life to God. Eventually he returned to Ireland to take the Gospel to the very people who had ensalved him as a child.

How awesome a story is that?

Blessings.
