Weekend Rewind — Catching Leprechauns

St. Patrick’s Day will soon be here! Here’s a festive and frugal activity Emily and I did last year, and it made our neighbors and letter carrier SMILE. Have fun!!


In honor of St. Patrick’s Day, we thought it would be fun to lure some leprechauns into our house for good luck. Armed with a pair of Clara’s old baby shoes and some colorful chalk, we made green footprints on the sidewalk leading into the house!

Emily told me not to forget about the rainbow. We all know how a real leprechaun can never resist the lure of a good rainbow!!
Exxxxx cellent….. all according to plan [insert hand-wringing here].

Leprechaun footprints are a lot of fun to jump on!





Wishing you a very happy (and lucky) St. Patrick’s Day!!
