St. Patricks Day

The Leprechauns got into our breakfast and turned it GREEN. Bruce thought if he licked off the frosting he would turn into Evrett.. He loves Evy so much and wants to be like him, he was sure the Lepracans put a spell on the frosting, he was way sad when he stayed Bruce.. but I am sure glad I got to keep my Bruce.Later in the day Minnie and the Girls came over to make some yummy cake pops. WE love all the cute treats on Bakerella and thought we would try it out.

We took picture like the Pioneer Woman, here is out cast over characters.. and the ingredients too!

We took turns smashing the Oreo's. The Kids did such a great job taking turns and really enjoyed helping cook.

We rolled the balls and started to dip them in chocolate, that's when we realized we are not Bakerella or The Pioneer Woman. They make it look so easy like anyone can make these cute pops. Ours turned out less then professional.... But they were way tasty and fun, so we may not be Bakerella but we are going to be enjoying their recipes in the future, if you want to see perfect cake creations check out their blogs.

Bruce and Sophie are WILD they are always running and wrestling they had a ton of fun sharing a chair during our cake making fun.

We made cute little clovers to go on top of the cakes... A lot harder then they look. Bruce, Hannah, and Wynnie all gave it a try and did a great job, maybe I'm just lacking in the cake decorating talent.

Maybe not just me, Kim thought it would be just as cute and allot easier to drizzle green chocolate over them, which worked great until she squeezed too hard and the bag broke...Maybe that is problem we used zip lock bags instead of real cake decorating bags. we had some cute clover's some not so cute, some way cute drizzled pops, and then one giant blob of green.

With food what matters the most is the taste and they were Delish


We went outside and played around on half a playground the kids made cute trains on the slide and had lots of fun playing in the dirt...Wynnie fell and ate some of the dirt, not nearly as tasty as the cake pops we made earlier. We cleaned her up and she was off again playing with all the kids.

Shane, our renter, got a new lizard and brought it out for the kids to all hold, he did this fun trick were Shane would rub his neck and but him on his back and he would stay their it was weird looking. Preston LOVED the lizard he held it and gave it kisses, I tried so hard to get a picture of him kissing the lizard but he was just too quick. Hannah held it, but all the other kids would only pet it. After we went in and had some yummy soup and rolls, then cleaned up alittle.
