A Day O' Fun

So we decided to celebrate St. Patrick's Day by going to Lubbock. That's a pretty far drive just to celebrate a day set aside for the color green, but it was worth it for the Krispy Kremes! That's right! They've got a Krispy Kreme Donut Shop in Lubbock and anyone who knows me knows I LOVE LOVE LOVE the double K. I even wanted to make a Krispy Kreme donut cake for my wedding. So anyhow, I'm obsessed and just found out they had a shop in Lubbock, and so our St. Patrick's Day was born. The kids loved watching the donuts go through the glaze wall and pop out on the other side. And they were big fans of the green donuts! They gave them a big thumbs up (although Porter has yet to manage a thumbs up with his fingers.).

Also, while Kyle and I took turns going through the temple, the kids had fun walking around the temple grounds with their leprechaun hats (courtesy of library story time) and wishing anyone they saw a Happy St. Patrick's Day. And to top it all off, when we got home Brighton drew a rainbow, pot of gold, and 2 leprechauns which really culminated our day. It was definitely a St. Patrick's Day full O' fun.
