St. Patrick's Day 2013
At last year's St. Patrick's Day
Grandchildren Party, Caleb asked
if next year we could invite his
neighbors and friends,
Luke and Sophia.
What a sweet idea from a sweet boy. So this year we expanded our party a little. I hope you enjoy the (MANY) pictures. |
For a party to be a success, you must have balloons, and if you think the balloons stayed in this pretty bucket, you don't know children. |
The slips of paper were used to play the Treasure Hunt Game. |
Here comes the food! All of it nutritious and delicious. Well, at least delicious. Skittles for the colors of the rainbow. |
Grandma's Green Sugar Cookies. |
Mint oreos--a much bigger hit than my homemade cookies. |
Peeps!!! |
Grapes--one of two nutritious items. The other was Kiwi, but alas, no picture. |
Green Twizzlers--who knew??? |
Lucky Charms--Get it??? |
The Fruit Loops Necklaces were a big hit--or should I say eating the Fruit Loops for the necklaces was a big hit. |
We made Leprechaun hats from styrofoam cups. Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of the finished product. You put them in a 250 degree oven, and MAGICALLY, they shrink and become hats. |
Working away. |
This is our fun group-- Caleb, David, Sophia, Aaron, Annabelle, Luke and Nana. It was cute! I asked our visitor children if they would like to call me Nana or Ms. Karen. Nana was the unanimous choice. |
Caleb |
I wonder what we were all looking at (except Aaron). Look closely at my arm in this picture. I will explain later. |
A real artist. |
Luke and Annabelle |
Aaron with the rainbow necklace. Not part of the party decor, but found in the costume chest. |
David loves stickers. |
The absolute ONLY time I got the whole group still and quiet was when I was reading them a book. |
I have to wear a compression sleeve to combat a side effect from my surgery 2 years ago. Caleb and Aaron found the "Shamrock Tatoo Sleeve" for me and gave it to me as a love present to wear to our party. |
The gang with their St. Patrick's Day crowns. |
This should have gone with the food-- Rainbow Ice in Sprite. A BIG hit! |
YES! We had a grand time! HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!!! |
