Moving far from home has made it imperative I journal our lives from the Knob. I am hopeful this will allow us to stay connected despite the plethora of miles between us and home....

Wear your Green!
I LOVE this holiday! I will post pictures of our celebration tomorrow. We were greeted by the piles of coins at the ends of their beds and a money trail from their rooms to green shirts, necklaces and a PARTEEE in the kitchen. The Elf flew in from the North Pole. It looked like they might have had some Irish Car bombs as they were wearing green flowers, necklaces, bracelets, buttons and were covered in chocolate gold and green coins! Woot! (For those not in the know! Irish Car Bombs are a shot glass of half Jameson Whiskey and half of Bailey's Creme, then you fill a cold mug half way up with Dark Stout Guinness, then YOU DROP THAT SHOT GLASS in the cup of Guinness and CHUG! It is so smooth and good. It tastes like a whipped mocha chocolatey goodness! YUM! I've posted a video to share!)
I have the Corned Beef in the crockpot, have the Irish soda bread raising and the Jameson Whisky ready to open! I know I'm Scotch Irish, so I have to play the part. (At least one day a year....)
The kids have NEVER gone to school on St. Patrick's Day. In Kansas it falls on Spring Break, so this has been a new experience for them. J-Bird had his pinching practice as he ran into Obe Wan's room before he even had got out of bed and pinched him in the boob. MAN oh Man was Obe Wan mad!!! That J-Bird is a little piece of work.
