St. Patrick's Day

St. Patrick's Day is a celebration of all kinds of things for us.  The truth is, as far as we know, we aren't very Irish.  St. Patrick wasn't either, so it doesn't bother me too much.  So, get some fun green clothes, throw in a Baptism anniversary, and a dash of reminiscing about our trip to Ireland two years ago, and oi-la!  Our day :). 

A happy Baptism day to Miss Lettie!  Usually, she would get to pick dinner; however, as long as it includes meat, our little carnivore is happy.  Therefore, it included meat.

Lettie fit in the same outfit Anni wore on her first St. Patrick's Day. Annnnd Anni wore the one and only green shirt she had, and was still super duper adorable.  Oh, how I love my wee ones!

As I mentioned, Colette just needs meat to be really happy with her dinner.  And my Daniel?  Well, he never, ever complains about a meal, so when I can make something I know he'll love, it's definitely a plus.  I decided to make a stab at making bangers and mash in hopes that they would bring back some yummy memories from our trip to Ireland (and, in case you're curious, they were delicious!  Anni said, "All my sausages taste like Ireland!")

 

Then there was the tradition of lighting and blowing out Lettie's candle (which she thought was pretty awesome).  

Happy St. Paddy's Day, my friends!  I hope it was as lovely as ours!
