Clover Day

Maybe I should wait until tomorrow to post this since technically tomorrow is St. Paddy's, but what the heck. Emily wanted me to post this picture on the blog so here goes:
Yes, this man rigged up a casket to be a car and entered it into the St. Patrick's Day parade here in Salt Lake. :) The caption on the back of the casket said, "Putting the FUN back into funerals." Too clever! It was awesome. Steve and Emily met us down at Gateway to watch the very long parade, we left after an hour and 45 minutes and the parade was still going. This casket car was by far one of the best entries. :)
Us at the parade. Tomorrow for "Clover Day" and Caleb has named it we will be doing our traditional 4 leaf clover hunt and then the boys will get to eat their "Pot of Gold", aka a cupcake decorated with yellow sprinkles. :) Then that same night we will start on our Easter tradition. Man with Easter so close it makes tomorrow's celebrations kind of weird. But we are looking forward to Granny Gray's Easter egg hunt! We love it! No pressure Granny, we know you are busy but your egg hunt is the best!
Other happenings in life. Caleb is signed up for T-Ball starting in April. He is very excited to play. He has his baseball hat ready to wear and we hope that he enjoys it as much as he did soccer. He is already planning on soccer in the Fall, after we take out trips to Scofield. :) He is also gearing up for Kindergarten. We have orientation in April to find out what we are really doing in the big kid world of school and then, off we go. He is not happy about leaving Miss Margaret's preschool, he likes just going to her house for school. I think the big school will be an adjustment for him, but he will love all the kids and recess, oh boy!
Peter is Peter. Learning more words each day and still suffering from ear infections. Argh! He will repeat almost anything we ask him to say and his prayers are so precious. Oh, and that we know of he said his first complete sentence on Saturday morning, "I want it back!" Nice. A couple of more pictures then I will sign off:
Caleb and Peter were very proud of the tulips they painted for spring. Too bad it snowed three days later. :) The bird feeder actually works!

Looks like a fun day! Have a good one tomorrow as well!

Are those tulips made out of egg cartons? Looking for a Joy school craft:P
