The Leprechauns' Party

Every year the Leprechauns' come to our house and have a wonderful party. The night before St. Patrick's Day the girls set out doll furniture on the kitchen table. They even write a letter. The Leprechaun's throw around couch cushions and pillows, fill up cups and plates, and usually leave something special behind. They even wrote back to the girls to thank them for the party. They also informed the girls that they are very small and can be invisible. The girls like to try the odd treats. This year the table was covered with candies that tasted like red hots and the cups were filled with a substance that was similar to green sprinkles.

The special surprise this year was miniature colts for the girls to take care and look after! They were quite pleased. Adelle especially has had fun taking care of her little bunch and loves it when I play horses with her. They are especially small so they are going to need extra care!
It is always good when the Leprechauns decide to pay our house a visit. It just makes everything seem magical!

What a fabulous tradition! Perhaps one of these years those little leprechauns will leave chocolate coins. ... julie
