Late Leprechauns

Last Friday night Niko announced he must make his leprechaun trap...granted that was at least a week after St. Patrick's Day. He hasn't missed making a trap since he was 4 years old, so we reassured him that the entire Month of March is good for catching leprechauns. His Aunt Mary's trip to Ireland a few years ago really kept his interest alive when she returned with books, a penny whistle and tales of looking for leprechauns in the green hills,

Look at Lil' Pup's head peaking over...he loves a project.


About this point I went to bed, but Niko was not going to stop until his design was finished.
This is what I saw in the morning...suspended from the ceiling? I hadn't expected that.

Here is where I would post Niko with his gold bar chocolate that the leprechauns left the next night, but Paul took the camera on a ski trip in Washington State and I think he took my SD card with photos on it. (Found it!)
