Green Everywhere

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!
I'm not sure when St. Patrick's Day became such a big holiday for us but it's happened. And I guess it was bound to - with a name like Murphy you have to celebrate! The leprachaun, Roy G. Indigo (Ella named him and I cannot tell you where in the world she got it from), visited the kids. He left golden nuggets in her hat and some cool socks. He left spazy headbands and oversized socks for the boys.
Daddy made delicious green pancakes for breakfast and our sweet friends, Beth and Abe, invited us over for a very green lunch with our other sweet friends, Sally and Drew. The kids had a great time with their shamrock potato stamps and my dill bread, spinach, and cucumber sandwich was oh so delicious!
Ella is still out looking for more leprachauns. Apparently they hide in the bushes in the block around our house. Hopefully she'll find us a nice big pot of gold!
IRISH KISSES TO ALL OF OUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS!

I'm diggin the St. Patty's get up!! And yes...with a name like Murphy it is a must to celebrate. I think Roy G. Inidigo may be a cousin to Roy G. Biv (The man that the colors of the rainbow is named after). Red, orange, yellow, green, etc.

That was a sad story about Ella too. I'm glad the friend situation is under control. If it happens again just tell her that it's their loss. I'm glad you are adjusting well to being a stay at home mom. Tell everyone hello from us and pinch those twinner cheeks for us...anyone under the age of two is exempt from the "not being pinched if you're wearing green" rule.

This is Josh by the way.

Wow, Ella has gotten so big. Cute pictures. Scott just told me about your blog today, thought I'd check it. I haven't even seen the twins they are sooo cute. I can't believe you had twins. Alana has had days like Ella, as mother it's so hard to hear. Hope all is well with you guys. Hope to see you next week at Jeremy's B-day.
