If you are coming to my blog hungry for a St. Patrick's Day meal-read yesterday's post (which is below this one, so scroll down...) and either make that yourself, or come on over tonight because that is what we are having for dinner!
First-I had my nails done:
("Decoration" #1)
I know it has FIVE leaves!!!
I tried to explain to my Vietnamese nail technician that I wanted a shamrock on one finger, but no one there understood what I was saying, so I said-"Just make a green flower...". Fine. Whatever. Good enough...Add a rhinestone to make it a little more girly...and you better just add another "green flower" on the other hand...
Perfect!
Second-we all have our St. Patrick's Day shirts on...and some of us are wearing shamrock socks. (If you guessed that Tin Man refused-you would be correct...) Since we all had St. Pat's shirts-I insisted on a family picture:
("Decoration" #2)
That is as good as it gets around here-The baby is looking at the dog who is whining to be near us, Dancing Boy is ready to pass out (because he's had a cold for a month), and Tin Man, Nature Boy and I are just trying to smile fake for the 10 second delay...we only took one picture because the natives were restless-The weather is slowly turning into spring, and the boys would rather:
a. climb a tree
b. play basketball
c. ride bikes
d. eat hot dogs
e. play on the neighbor's play scape
...anything BUT take a picture. (And after being cooped up for several months-I don't blame them one bit! I feel the same way!)
Third~ So, really the only thing about St. Patrick's Day decorating is this:
(The REAL St. Patrick's Day Decoration...It is my only one!)
That is my gift from MotherHood (http://homesticaffairs.blogspot.com/) for the St. Patrick's Day Swap...and I love it! She even made me this: 
Those are so cool, aren't they? I am one lucky girl on this fabulous St. Pat's Day~
Do I have a great friend, or what??? (You were so creative! Thank You-MotherHood!)
Happy St. Patrick's Day! From the Lions, Tigers and Boys Family

Love the green flower! I too have difficulty getting my point across to my nail tech. That is classic. Gret pics. You all look wonderful. Love that art piece.

I bought sparkly green fingernail polish for the day and never managed to sit down and put it on. But I do have on a green shirt!

Thanks for your lovely birthay wishes. I have had a great day today. Your nails looks wonderful and your new family picture is really special. Those pictures your friend made are beautiful. They are so unusual and look very stylish.
Happy St Patrick's Day. Do they really turn the river green in Chicago for St Patrick's Day? It said so on our TV news today.

Yes I know I said I was getting in the hot tub but I just had to read a few blogs and what in the world. I was just at your house and I didn't see those cool deco's. What's up with that? Can't wait for tomorrow H. L. 9:30!!!!!
So sorry the glass broke! I thought the bubble envelope was enough. Apparently not! I've had to take a break from blogging. I have another trip for an on-camera interview for the "job" I'm trying to get! So far so good. I'll know by the end of April! I'm still keeping it on the down-low! ;) Thanks for your prayers.
