Happy St. Patrick's Day

Luck of the Irish to ya! I don't know any good Irish sayings...I sent the boys to school in their St. Patrick's Day shirts today. I mostly made them last year but I failed to finish them in time so they had to wait until this year. Nolen told me he didn't like it and didn't want to wear it. As you can see, he didn't win that battle and I told him it was rude to say that about something I made for him. Max was happy to wear his - of course they seem to play off each other more and more lately. If one of them is doing something I don't like, the other one will point out that he is being a perfect angel. ha!

Like the backwards letters on Max's shirt? Sadly, it was not intentional! oops!

And, I didn't get around to making an '04 for the back of Max's shirt. I got online last night to find a "4" to copy and I ended up facebooking, got tired and quit. Doh! Oh well, he didn't care. And by the way, the 03 and 04 are the years they were born. I thought that was pretty clever. Hehe.

As for the rest of St. Patrick's Day, I am planning on having a beer later. Not so much because its St. Patrick's Day, but because the boys are driving me a little nuts today. Max only stopped talking during his nap today - other than that, it has been non stop blabbering. I also made the boys mint chocolate chip milkshakes for snack (they're green) and I have a corned beef brisket in the oven for dinner. I've never made it before so hopefully it turns out. I don't know how you could go wrong - it was packaged with the spices inside and the directions on the front. I don't think Nolen is going to like it too much. When he walked in the house this afternoon, he asked me what smelled stinky. Wish us LUCK!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

And I completely agree with Nolen. Corned beef is stinky!
