The kids succeeded in collecting gold coins left by our little green friends. The past week was filled with early morning sightings of gold lying around our house and neighborhood. All the kids in the neighborhood had fun searching for gold coins in hopes of catching a leprechaun! In the end only a green hat was left behind and no amount of searching led to lucky captures!! Better luck next year!! We ended our St. Patrick's Day celebration with a modified Irish dinner consisting of mashed potatoes, "corned beef" aka meatballs(Frikedellen) and kraut.

We are adjusting to life in Maryland! Morgyn is close enough to walk to school! Jadyn and Torbyn bus it to school! Brittyn and Mommy are home together having fun and Dad is learning the ropes with his new job. Jeff is also starting his second class towards his Masters with Gonzaga.
We had a great Christmas! Only half of our tree fit in the house. But we made it work. In the end it still filled our window and Jeff was satisfied.
Before Christmas we took a trip on the Metro to D.C. and saw our nations capital in person and of course the 76 ft tree from Montana! The kids also loved the Natural History Museum!
A couple of days before Christmas we also drove to the DC temple to enjoy the lights. Not exactly like Temple Square but it worked!
Morgyn represented our family well today with a great youth talk about service. She was very poised for her first talk in Sacrament Meeting.

What a great idea! I'll have to remember that one for next year!
Whew...thank goodnes the leprechauns remember our house this year. Last year, they all but forgot. What a fun tradition you've started for us.
