The Leprechaun Came!

My kids thought it would be great fun to trap the Leprechaun this year. But oops they forgot to set a trap. So that darn leprechaun was in our house and Ellie and me could hear him so we put pennies on the counter to trick him. He made a mess of our house when he left footprints on the floor. He even turned our milk, mayo, water, eggs, and toast green. We have to say our leprechaun wasn't very smart. He took our 20 pennies and left four dollar bills. We had to laugh. He left a note saying "Ha Ha Ha, I took your shiny money and only left you paper." He thought he was pretty tricky.


The kids also put there shoes out front with a penny in each shoe and he took the penny and left them candy. So even though he isn't the smartest of Leprechauns he sure is nice.

You're always too cute with your holiday cheer! I hope I'll have a little bit of it in me when I have kids.
