My mom's favorite holiday is St. Patrick's Day. For as long as I can remember, she has loved Ireland and anything celtic;) We capitalize on the fact that she loves this random holiday and every year we throw a party to celebrate. This year may have been the best yet-we played minute-to-win-it leprechaun games, pin the shamrock on the leprechaun, the kids hunted for their own pots-of-gold, and we ate lots of yummy food (my brother-in-law brought his crepe maker and so I made sure nutella came to the party as well). I found these awesome St. Patrick's Day mustaches (so random) at Old Navy like a month ago and Ryan had been DYING to wear them. Too bad he only wore it for about 30 seconds;)
This weekend Pete discovered that there is a lot more white trash inside of me then he ever dreamed there could be. We went to the Nickelcade and he couldn't get me to leave-literally he had to beg me to leave so we could go get dinner. I had a blast and would have been perfectly content playing skee-ball and deal-or-no deal (my latest arcade discovery-so addicting!) all night long. I also fought with Ryan over whose turn it was to throw the ball in skee-ball-Yes, one of my finest parenting moments. I told Pete and Ry we are going there on a regular basis;)
I love how serious that guy's skee-ball stance is...
I also love how concentrated Pete is when he plays video games...

Love the St. Patty day party! I bet Ryan had a ball. And I love it that you had such a great time at the Nickelcade- skee ball is one of my favorite games too.
Fun stuff lady! I l.o.v.e. skee ball! I remember playing all the time at BYU's bowling alley... now the only place I can get to it is through dirty Chuck-E-Cheese.
Those Staches are KILLER!!! I love them. Everyone needs a random Stache in their lives.
I also am a fan of Nickelcade. I love the game where you drop the nickels at the right moment to knock all the other's off the ledge. I of course waste all my nickels in about 5 minutes but its so addicting!
Love the St P day celebrations and I especially love the WT Nickelcade- I could spend hours at that place. So good to see you this weekend. Miss you already
Oh how I love it all! I actually really need some of those mustaches. Where did you get them? Any chance there are any still available?
Those staches are my favorite!! I totally could have used those this year:) Love the Nickelcade too.... good to hear there is some white trash in ya!
Oh man! I always miss out on all the fun - green mustaches and all! Love the four leaf clover tights, btw. :)
