Those Darn Leprechauns


Every year the Leprechauns come to our house and cause all sorts of mischief. They color our food green and play tricks on us.

They even painted all the boys toe nails green in their sleep last night. Mommy thought it was hilarious!


Tom and Dave built a leprechaun trap and caught a real live leprechaun. Dave tried to use silly string to catch it as it was running away, but the leprechaun used his magic to turn it on Dave instead.

Tom claimed the gold that the Leprechaun had to leave to get out of the trap. He also was in such a rush that he left his hat! I'm sure that we will get him next year.

This looks like so much fun! I forgot it was even St. Patrick's Day. I guess I'm no fun at all.

What a fun tradition! That is so fun. David's face is so good. I bet the leprechaun got away because of DAvid's bright red shirt.... you cant sneak up on a leprechaun in a big red shirt.... silly David!

"David, you stole my favorite shirt!"

I think this is a super cute tradition. Why didn't the leprechauns turn the eggs green, too? Also, is that a picture of David and Tommy's feet? Looks more like Heather and Janie's.

David you have girly feet. Notice the period? That means it's a fact.

Looks like a lot of fun!!

how fun! I love how creative the women in my family are. And some of the guys I guess too...based on David's feminine feet.

that looks like fun! I've never done anything for St.Patrick's day before except wear green.

Tommy was watching the eggs. The leprechauns couldn't sneak in with him on guard : )

Dave said...

Those are definitely man feet. Notice the hair?
