Happy St. Patrick's Day


I've never been one to really celebrate St. Patrick's Day. When I was in 6th grade my best friend and I got matching shirts with green clovers on them and really that has been the extent of my excitement over March 17th!! In fact today I had the day off and celebrated by staying in my jammies most of the day until I went to the gym in the afternoon. LAZY!!!!

Well Bretty has done quite a bit to celebrate putting on the Green! A few weeks ago he called me on a Friday afternoon and said he needed a Leprechaun costume by Sunday afternoon, some Tabor event-didn't ask too many ?? about it- thought it best!!

Well, my good friend Kathy heard he was going to be a leprechaun and helped finish off his costume w/ a "kiss me I'm Irish" button and a necklace. Then she came in for the kill and asked him to visit her 5th grade classroom to read and give out candy. The Principal heard about it and so last Friday Brett spent the afternoon at Walton Elementary visiting grades K-5. He did magic tricks, read stories, handed out coloring sheets and candy. The kids had a great time and I think Brett did too! In fact he agreed to come back next year, we just have to get him another green sequined hat before next year, it seems the one he had was stolen by one of his buddies-again the least amount of ??'s asked the better!!

Okay, so leprechauns are LITTLE men that wear green. And how does someone way over 6 feet tall play a LITTLE man?

Just wondering.
