Happy Green Day!

To us, St. Patrick's Day is basically a green-colored day.  Evie's still too young to care, but it's still fun to do something "green" for fun.  And, I don't know why it is, but I just cannot NOT dress her up for any particular holiday.  LOL!

We started out the morning with green pancakes (served on green plates, of course).  We had green sandwiches for lunch.  If you care for the recipe and/or want to see what we actually ate, you can go to my food/recipe blog.  When Beau got home, we all went to dinner.  I'm mad because I forgot to snap a family picture, but we were ALL wearing green.  It would have been a cute picture!

Hope you all had a fun day!

Swim, Swim, Swim

Somebody started swimming lessons around here!  Evie gets SO excited to go "simming" that she can hardly stand it!  We're in a parent-tot class so I swim with her (sorry about the somewhat-blurry picture. . . it was taken with my phone).  She's already had a lot of swimming experience, so I dare say she might be a little ahead of the game (i.e., she's already used to the water, the splashing, can jump off the side of the pool, etc.).  Her teacher already has us working on underwater swimming . . . which is why this lucky little lady gets goggles.  Oh my heck . . . do you just want to kiss that goggle face?  We're having so much fun that the worst part is leaving the pool once lesson is over.  Serious!  Evie has a major meltdown and cries, "sim, sim, sim" all the way home.  At least we know she loves it, right!?

Hopefully this angel will REALLY be swimming in no time!
