St. Patrick's Day

Some how we mustered a bit of energy and celebrated, we'll really I just took pictures of the boys and picked up some store bought baked goods. We are all under the weather today. I'm fighting a painful sinus infection, Jack was diagnosed with Phenomia on Tuesday, Bryce is just getting over an ear infection, we're all on antibiotics and Marty is in the Bay Area on business. We did not actually get dressed in our green wear until after naps, but the sun was out and our spirits lifted by this Irish day!







The dinner was really easy and festive. We made ordinary Annie's, white cheddar, sea shell pasta and added green food coloring. Jack got carried away with the die so their lips turned green too. The corned beef was left over from Sunday when Marty made a delicious crock pot corned beef meal for us all. Canned green beans topped it all off. Martha would NOT approve!









Cookies were store bought, usually I bake, but being that we are getting over a nasty cold I didn't want to bake in germs for everyone.



Happy St. Patrick's from this some-what Irish family!
