We started some new traditions this year.
Painting leprechaun traps.

Sydney's "Welcome to Green Land" trap.
Green apple sodas
Trap-setting in the moonlight, leprechaun surprises by sunrise.
I always want to remember tucking Jack into bed that night. With the biggest smile he said, almost sang "I wonder where the leprechauns are right now!!!" All the kids were sure that in the morning they'd find one of the little buggers staring up at them from inside their clever traps.
No leprechauns but lots of green candy.
Hidden chocolate gold coins.
Cousins!
Marlie,
Sadie Jo,
Mr. Kai Kai cool pants,
And the Doddridge boys!
Allie finding gold.
As always, we had the traditional Irish soda bread & potatoes,
Irish pub songs playing, and Darby O' Gill and the Little People.
The earth is filled with beauty
And it's gathered all together
In the form and face and dainty grace
of a pretty Irish girl
Oh she is my dear my darlin' one
Her eyes so sparkling full of fun
No other, No other
Could match the likes of her
Oh she is my dear my darlin' one
My smilin' and beguilin' one
I love the ground she walks upon
My pretty Irish girl
