Happy St. Patrick's Day!

It wasn't that long ago that St. Patrick's Day meant drinking some green beer at PT O'Malley's at Michigan State. What can I say? The school's official colors are green and white - practically an invitation for a special St. Pat's celebration. Not to mention that Ryan and I ran into each other the day after St. Patrick's Day one year. Ever the liberated woman (LOL), I asked him if he wanted to get dinner sometime. Without that forward move on my part, today's celebration might never have taken place!

Hooray for little boys in green! Dylan was really living it up. We didn't name him Dylan Patrick for nothing :)

My girl sporting her green...

...and pink and yellow and purple. She picked the leggings herself. Really.

Abbey has been talking about cupcakes since her birthday. We decided (well, I guess I decided, since I am the only one who can reach the KitchenAid mixer) to make some green cupcakes to celebrate the day. I had the ingredients for the cupcakes on hand, but we needed to go to the store to get the stuff for frosting. Thankfully, the weather was absolutely beautiful (in the 60s, which is unseasonably warm for this time of the year), so we all piled into the double stroller to go to the store. Dylan slept later than normal in the afternoon, so we didn't have time to frost them before dinner, but Abbey enjoyed her frosting-less cupcake anyway. I finished the sweet treats after dinner. There was no green beer in sight, but I think even the most thirsty of St. Patrick's Day partiers would have enjoyed our cupcakes at the end of the day!

Dylan and Abbey are both adorable! But I have to say Dylan looks happier that its St. Patrick's Day!! I think he's looking forward to drinking green beer some day ;)
