Our St. Patricks Day was really fun. Jonathan got to come home early (yay!) and we invited Grandma Olsen over for corned beef and cabbage. She brought Sami a little gift bag with green beads (her favorite) and some green candy and green jello. Needless to say, she was thrilled. And for dinner, we had the traditional corned beef and cabbage, with green Sprite, green jello, green salad, and homemade oreos with green frosting. Sami actually enjoyed the corned beef, which surprised us. Now that we have children, traditions are becoming more and more important to me, and I hope this happy St. Patty's day is a continuing tradition.

Looks like y'all had fun! It just tickles me how much Sami loves beads! Green is a wonderful color! :)
Chrissy and Jonathan,
So fun to see your blog again! I loved reading about your diet and the girls, about the blessing day and St. Patrick's day. Sorry you were at the ER for Valentine's Day again! I still remember that day 5 years ago so well! It was so fun for Leah and Suzanne and I waiting for you to return.
I don't think I've written since you had Janie, although I've read some posts quickly. I know it's not easy to have two so close. Millie did the same diaper thing, and still does. She always wants to see Gracie's diapers. Now she says, "what color is it? Oh, brown! Did you know that brown is my favorite?"
I'd love to talk soon! (if our kids will let us!)
Love, Jen
So Sami liked the corned beef! I know you were worried cause you'd never made it before...was it really yummy? I'll have to write down your instructions and try it next year if so. I love corned beef!
I'm glad y'all had so much fun! We always ate green eggs and ham on St. Patrick's Day (thanks to Dr. Seuss).
