Seeing green...St. Patrick's Day and more

Our little family is in a roll with holidays- baby had a cold for Halloween, we all were sick for Thanksgiving, bad colds over Christmas, Greg had the flu over Valentines, and on St. Patrick's Day! Poor hubby even called in sick today, not even the drinking "day after" illness. My boys have the stomach bug but it amazes me the random smiles and good cheer we get out of the baby.

Despite being under the weather, it was a good day. My little sister (from the Navy) came home to the Midwest and landed in Des Moines. Mom, little bro, and I went in the airport to meet her-we were distracted by the bacon display in the store since she hadn't called to tell us she landed. Last October, we gathered at the airport with flowers, balloons, and a sign so this trip we used the same sign. After the store we made our way over the bottom to the escalator, since she hadn't called we were all staring at the list of planes that just landed when she walked over....FAIL...mom didn't even have the sign turned the right way!

After that we meet our grandparents for lunch who drove up from Omaha to celebrate Christmas will with us since Chrystal was back in town, we had them wait till March. The night was low key, no one drank anything green. If Grant would have felt better, I thought about doing a green bottle but no luck. Anyway, we managed to get some cute photos.....
