When the Doyle's showed up on our doorstep last night, these Irish kids couldn't wait to get hunting for leprechauns!
They all wore cammo so the leprechauns wouldn't see them coming. Of course, they all had to have hats!
The garden seemed to have a lot of leprechaun visitors...
What did they find?
Why, treasures, of course!
My yard was very busy last night! Even Bo got in on the action. He kept saying, "I tink I tound tome-ting!" Translation, "I think I found something!"
(One day this boy is going to be very mad at me. In the mean time, I love those suspenders!!!)
I think this was about the time Annie yelled, "Quiet! We have to be quiet so we can catch some leprechauns instead of this junky old paper!"
Luckily, the boys know who's the boss by now...
And this new leprechaun trap showed up on my doorstep. Lib and I can't quite figure out how it works, but the kids worked on it for a very long time. I do know that the ripped up plastic cup is an integral part of the entire trap.
Be careful if you come over today!
Then inside for some green treats! (It's amazing what you can make green...)
Then off to bed...
This poor boy has been planning to sleep on the couch with a butterfly net to catch the leprechauns for weeks now. Too bad he just couldn't stay awake for it!
Happy St. Patrick's Day from
Twitchie McPixie!
(my leprechaun name, of course.)
