You would have thought it was Christmas morning in our house...I woke up to Syd and Kay peering over my bed saying, "Is it St. Patrick's Day, Mommy?" We got up and Sydney pinched me because my jammies were black. So I put on a green necklace and we headed downstairs for our Green Eggs and Ham. I know there's nothing Irish about this, but it's what my mom did for me growing up....we read the book and ate green eggs and ham. Anyway...enjoy the pictures!

Do you think Kayleigh said, "Hey Syd...kiss me, I'm Irish!"?
For lunch we had green mac and cheese and kiwi
Sydney wanted to use her green siggy at naptime!
Our snack...I considered green beans and peas, but didn't think it would go over well.
Little lassie, Kayleigh...
Because I tend to go overboard...here's our "green party" decorations
Our dinner....chicken and broccoli casserole with green rice
Our giant shamrock cookie for dessert
I'll leave you with just a couple pics of Kayleigh...
And here's a picture Kayleigh took of me
