Erin go bragh! As is tradition, we celebrated St. Patrick's Day with corned beef and cabbage, soda bread, and special green Lucky Charms. For whatever reason, animals seemed to make up most of this week's photos.
Here is Ferg on Monday. E is making a face because she chose to eat a fresh strawberry top first.
We had snow off and on throughout the day Wednesday. Here is the scene in the morning at BUH, where E had yoga and art. She painted this horse, and she was willing to keep it. Sometimes she doesn't like to keep her work, but we try to encourage her to give herself credit as she learns.
The snow left later in the day, and the tulips are trying to come up. Hallie thought she had pulled all the bulbs at the end of last year, but as a present to her here was a surprise.
Hallie and Eliza found a fun Disney-themed LEGO set at Target: Stitch with a Hawaiian shirt holding an ice cream cone! We built it over a few days and set it in the living room.
Mike took E to see Jack and Raunchy a few days this week. As the weather transitions into spring, we have appreciated getting to spend more time outdoors in the sun.
Funny story. At Hallie's work, the electronic babies are getting ready to go home with the students for the weekend. Hallie received a text saying, "Need help now!" The students in Hallie's lab and Hallie headed to the classroom to find everyone holding babies and trying to burp them to get them all to stop crying.
Kai came back on Friday, and he immediately found his toys. Sadly, we had to bid this polar bear farewell, as he had torn it open and pulled out the fluff. We don't need a dog to barf fluff. Fortunately, he has four other stuffed animals to chew on to his heart's content.
When Mike and Eliza went to see J&R on Saturday, Fergus joined them. He had a good time climbing up the hay bale stack and getting into the storage building on the property. Our cat and dog are quite the shadows.
Mike took photos of some of the flowering ground foliage and found that Ferg had squeezed under the door.
Later, we went up to Gma and Gpa M's house hoping to catch some kite-flying wind. No luck with the wind, but Eliza did get a chance to earn some money picking up deer droppings from the front lawn.
On Sunday, we relished in a delightful early spring day. Hallie, Eliza, and Kai went for a walk along the Mapleton Lateral Canal Trail. Today they saw llamas (alpacas?) and goats.
Later on, we had our Irish meal. Come by for some soda bread! Sláinte!
