St. Patrick's Day

So, the kids had their traditional lucky charms and fruit for breakfast and then we proceeded with our normal school day. For lunch I made them an all green meal. We ate sausages in crescent rolls that I dyed green, pistachio pudding, green apples, rainbow goldfish, mini green sugar cookies and green lemonade. 

After school, we had our traditional scavenger hunt to find what the leprechaun left them :)

They had to do skip to find their next clue

 Since they are getting older, I wanted to make it a little bit trickier. I had them do cross word puzzles, scattegories and activities like that in order to get their next clue. Joey was a little surprised by this.:)

Walking backwards to their next clue

 Love this picture. Emma's photo bomb :)

Emma was excited to get a Lego Movie lego set.

 Emma got the new Tinkerbell that I did so well hiding from her. She didn't even know the new one came out yet :)

They both got gold at the end of the rainbow treats as well

And of course our yummy all green dinner. Green mac and cheese, green rolls, broccoli, and a rainbow fruit kabob.

March

A few things that happened in March:

 Emma started wearing glasses!

Joey FINALLY had his first Pinewood derby. I can't believe he managed to go through all of cubscouts and only getting to do a derby once. He didn't win but he had fun! He named his car Thin Ride because of how thin it was.

Joey Won!

He won again!

The kids have been enjoying going to Lego Club at our Library every Monday. Here is one of Emma's creations.

And Joey's

March 10th, would have been Myra's 7th birthday. For lunch me and the kids made butterfly pizzas.

For dinner we had butterfly lettuce wraps with carrots as the body

We had butterfly tarts for dessert

Joey was so sweet...he took some of his money from his piggy bank and made it into a butterfly and told me to put it in my Paris fund :)

For her present this year, I made a purple butterfly clock. We were needing a new clock in our bathroom and it is purple and green so I thought how perfect!
