Happy Birthday Grandma!!
How LuCKy is grandma to have her birthday on St. Patrick's Day! Everyone pitched in for lots o' fun! Aunt Bax and Uncle Glen planned dinner, Brooke made the cake and Cami provided entertainment.
Yes, folks that is GREEN VELVET CAKE and GREEN PINEAPPLE ICE CREAM! Grandpa picked up mom's favorite ice cream in a 3 gallon container. That's the gift that keeps on giving throughout the ENTIRE year ahead...

We all gave mom a digital picture frame to take to work


Ok, check out the cake Brooke made. This was the GREENEST cake I have ever seen. 1 1/2 big bottles of green food coloring went into this velvet cake - with cream cheese icing...LUCKY us! It was really so good! Nice job Brooke!

Cami came up with a really fun treasure hunt for the kids. They definately found a POT O GOLD at the end!

I was so glad Josh finished the day with something...he had spent hours in the backyard building traps and chasing after leprechauns. He told us of all the near misses he and his friends had earlier in the day at recess with the lucky little guys. Unfortunately, he did not catch one, BUT he was so close at one time that he got kicked in the stomach by a frightened leprechaun! Poor Josh! Better LUCK next year!

WOW! You people take the term "Going Green" to a whole new level! That cake looks divine and I love the green hair! I didn't even remember it was Patty Day until I was told...so sad.
