Happy St. Patty's Day!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!! Did you know I'm Irish! I love this day!! My great grandfather immigrated from Ireland and became a Canadian Mounty, married my great grandmother(who was of the opposite faith and was disinherited)and then moved to America. His name was William Macalrath Willis. (Not sure if the middle name is spelled right) I should get a picture of him up here. He looks like the most gentle of souls. He reminds me of my Grandpa Rogers (He never had an unkind word to say of anyone. I never heard him say anything bad, EVER)
Doesn't the bread look nice and Yummy? NOT! Seriously, I don't know how the kids could eat this stuff! I wanted to puke just looking at it!!I'm not a person who can look past the outside to what's on the inside apparently!




Aren't the bags cute!? Ha Ha!! I should've done it a long time ago and really made them cute! Should've gotten some White bags and done some stamping and coloring. But hey, I didn't feel good and they were lucky it had anything at all on them. Beth helped me with them so we got them done pretty quickly. The pot of gold was her idea. I loved that one the most out of all of them. I put some glitter on the gold and it looked cute. I can't believe how much the kids loved it! They were soooo excited to see it all. I woke up to Jo Jo jumping up on my bed with his little bag of goodies with a huge grin. Anyone that knows Joseph, knows that he doesn't demonstrate his feeling very well, but boy was he excited! He had the happiest face. Made me feel all mushy inside!! I love being a MOMMY!

HAPPY ST. PATRICKS DAY!
