birthday boy

every st.patrick's day we celebrate with a "green meal" that parker's mom makes. everything we eat is green. last nights menu included: corn beef and cabbage, green irish stew, salad with green ranch, green cornbread, asparagus, green jello, green grapes, green milk and green lemonade. it was delicious! we also celebrated parker's grandpa's 90th birthday. instead of traditional gifts, each child gave him 90 of something, to show him what 90 looks like. my kids did little gumballs, swedish fish, jelly beans and smarties. the kids also showed him what 90 feels like by giving him 90 hugs and kisses. we sang happy birthday and dessert was green cupcakes and mint brownies.
