Or as my little boys call it "green day".
Why do they call it green day?
Well...we wear green, eat green, color green...we are very green.
I love any excuse for fun food, fun clothes, fun crafts & well, fun.
So we are having a 'traditional' St. Patrick's Day (for our family anyway)
In the weeks leading up to THE day we start making crafts
Decorating the house
We make our traditional RAINBOW cake.
And on St. Patty's morning we always have our green breakfast
(don't tell my kids, I used chlorophyll to dye their eggs & pancakes. Shhhhh....)
And we always have a few ~just for fun~ items for the day
Pot of Gold jars & new socks :)
We even have fun school projects
We always read the historical account of the REAL Patrick. He was no saint, just a kidnapped boy who loved the Lord & wanted to share His love with the people who enslaved him. Beautiful story.
Of course, St. Patty's wouldn't be St. Patty's without corned beef & cabbage so tonight we will dine at the American Legion Dinner on all the corned beef & cabbage we want. :)
So remember: It is easy being green!
Have fun. Taste the rainbow :)
Blessings.
