Hoodwinked

It was an action packed St. Patricks day that actually started yesterday when Logan got home from school. They had read a few books about leprechauns and he was convinced he could catch one. So for the next 3 hours he built traps. He told me that HE wouldn't be hoodwinked by any leprechaun.
While building he also discovered a mysterious trail of pennies that lead him around the backyard until it eventually stopped at the fence, near a patch of clover. He immediately set off next door to ask the neighbors if the trail continued on their side. (thank goodness they we're not home. That would have been tough to explain)
To kick off our St. Pattys Day we ate green waffles with green apple juice.Logan checked his traps immediately only to find the leprechaun made off with his 'gold' but left him a present...a set of funny looking teeth (that leprechaun needs to restock the prize cabinet).
I also taught a science lesson in Logan's class today. They are learning about matter and how it can chance from one phase to another. We made GREEN ICE CREAM!!!
We ended our day with some yummy corned beef and cabbage.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!!
