St. Patrick's Day

We celebrated St. Patrick's Day a day early and, well, a little on the "actual" St. Patrick's Day.  Sunday morning (and truthfully Monday morning) brought with it {knockoff} Lucky Charms with green milk.  No matter what people say {I'm looking at you Sissy}, it is delicious!

Chris made a delicious St. Patrick's Day lunch of stuffed pork with feta cheese, spinach and mushrooms; asparagus; and onion rings.  Definitely worth the wait!

Since it was the last week of our women's Bible study and since we were talking about our health (haha!) and since it was St. Patrick's Day weekend, it definitely called for Shamrock Shakes!  After Bible study, a couple of families stayed for dinner.  One of the dads brought pizza with him - yay!  And then, because the dads and kids didn't have Shamrock Shakes, we had more!  Double yay!  

After dinner, we watched a Veggie Tales on St. Patrick's Day and the reasoning behind celebrating it - especially as a believer.  I wish I would have had this a few days ago when Elianna asked me why we celebrated St. Patrick's Day and I said I had no idea other than 1) it's fun  2) green is cool and  3) I've got an Irish temper Irish blood.  Not to mention Shamrock Shakes, of course!

In case you are also wondering about St. Patrick's Day, sit back, put your feet up, revert back to your childhood and watch Veggie Tales take on St. Patrick's Day.
