We started our day of green with a fun and colorful breakfast! I have been enjoying a new website called Pinterest. Lots of people pin items that they have created or made for their families. I got the rainbow pancakes idea from that sight. My Mom and I created the pot of gold at the end of the rainbows though. We used hash-browns and scrambled eggs! I served the kids Naked Green Machine to drink with their breakfasts just to complete the effect!! Such a fun way to get our day started!
Grandpa called us earlier in the week and told us that Burger King was going to be serving green ketchup. We were very excited to learn that the fries were going to be free too! Burger King now has gluten-free fries which is a big plus for us :)
The kids enjoyed their burgers and fries with green ketchup. Dadam
thought the ketchup tasted different and I thought it was fun!
The Ashton family invited us over for a traditional St. Patrick's Day dinner! We enjoyed corn beef and cabbage, soda bread, potatoes and carrots and yummy green bread, broccoli and lime sherbert with 7/Up as our drinks! Addison and Adam ate everything on their plates just to let ya know how YUMMY everything tasted :)
Our family was asked to bring dessert and once again I had fun using Pinterest to find yummy treats. I made a grasshopper pie, green caramel corn, a rainbow fruit salad and chocolate mint pretzels! I am happy to say that the fruit salad was the first thing finished!
I wish that I would have taken a few pictures of the kids playing. The kids are growing up so fast and it is fun to watch them play with other kids. The girls got together and put on a show for us outside on the trampoline. The boys had fun tossing around the football with Dadam. Amelia had such a great time playing with Mia that she cried for her on our way home. Our little ones aren't so little anymore and I find myself trying to savor each moment they share with us!
