First off, Happy Birthday to my dad! What a year. Last year on his birthday he was in the hospital and diagnosed with lung cancer (on his birthday). A lot has transpired since then. It has not been an easy 12 months, but we celebrate how far he’s come and the fact that on this day, he is cancer free. Some birthdays are about so much more than cake and goodies. Life is the real gift!! Happy Birthday Dad.
I also had to share this quick photo I snapped at Garrett’s school. It’s from a cute bulletin board his teacher posted in the hallway listing the kindergarten class. I spotted this handsome guy:
Finally, Happy St. Patrick’s Day! On the show this morning, we talked about a little printable craft the kids and I did this week. It’s so easy (I love those kinds of crafts)!:) Just print, cut and paste.

How is it that in my 33 years I never realized that a green bell pepper was shaped like a three-leaf-clover?!:) N-e-a-t! You can get the recipe here, along with several other wonderful, creative St. Patrick’s Day food ideas.
Have a blessed, beautiful weekend!
