The Holiday DAZE

I've been struggling with having so many holidays so close together! It kills me that on the same night we ate this: Our oh-so-Irish traditional dinner of fried potatoes and hot dogs. I asked my mom about this tradition and she basically told me to focus on the potatoes. Happy St. Pat's!

We did this:The boys couldn't stand the smell!Josh's finished product. (Yes we bought the Star Wars egg kit...)Jacob displaying his C3PO and R2-D2 stickered egg.Here is my C3PO egg.Willie accused me of "cheating" and reminded me how at Halloween my pumpkin was a Mr. Potato Head and I just stuck the pieces in. Okay, I'm a cheater...

I too am a little flustered with the closeness of Easter and St. Pat's. I don't like Easter in march! It's tough. But you were a great mama and fit it all in! Looks fun.

This is a comment for Jacob: Jake, I can't leave a comment on your blog, but want you to know I love the pictures you take. You had a wonderful Easter, I could tell. The Easter bunny must love you as much as I do. Love, Grandma T. (I love your whole family!)

Grandma Truman- Thank you for loving Jacob and Joshua and Nathan and Natalie and Dad, and I'm so glad that you had a good Easter. I could tell. I like your special Star Wars game. It's really cool.
Love,
Jacob
