Happy St. Patty's Day!

It really annoys me when people say St. Paddy's Day.  His name wasn't Padrick.  Well, maybe it was.  I'm not up on the Irish to English translation.  But as far as we know, it was PaTrick.  Hence, Patty's day.  /off soapbox

I helped Zach set up a trap to catch a leprechaun.  Rumor has it, if you can trick him into a bucket or some such receptacle, he is 'trapped' and according to the magical rules they live by, the leprechaun must leave his gold in payment in order to gain his freedom and avoid being seen by human eyes.  This year we put the bucket and shiny trinkets in Zach's room (since Owen tends to wake and wander the house in the wee morning hours) and I DID warn him that by doing so, the leprechaun might blame him personally and play some pranks on him.

Nasty little bugger.  Dirty footprints AND green pee? 

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
