Green Dinner

Happy St. Patrick's Day to everyone! Brents family started a tradition a couple years ago to have a 'green dinner' on St. Patrick's Day. So, in honor of 'tradition' I steamed broccoli, asparagus, and made green snickerdoodles and headed over to green mashed potatoes, green bread, green fruit salad, green punch, and 'normal' colored chicken dinner. (With green sherbert ice cream). Kai gasped when he saw the green mashed potatoes. I thought the green bread was rather clever myself. And the rest of the stuff just looked normal. But it was a lot of fun. Joan had set the table with a green tablecloth and plates too. We regularaly have Sunday dinners with Brent's parents (almost) every Sunday and some times other 'special' occasions and its always a lot of fun. Today Joan accompanied me to the IKEA store to purchase my new bookshelves for my OWN office! It was exciting, and yes, I know I am a spoiled little girl. Now I get to sprawl my scrapbooking and sewing and all my other crafts all over the room and NEVER have to clean up again! Yeah for me! it will still be some time before my salon is completed. But I will keep you all posted! Hope no one got pinched today!

p.s. Did anyone remember to remind Adam of the holiday? And did he ever fix the clock in his car!?

Nope, forgot about St. Patrick's day.

Breanne rescued me and fixed the clock in my car. I can't figure it out for the life of me.

I don't know how I've been missing your blog updates, but I agree with Cammie - where are the pictures. All that work and no proof. It didn't happen, I say.

JK. Way to go. I lied in bed sick all day. It was pretty exciting for my kids.
