St, Patrick's Day...

So awhile ago I got an idea from a friend and wanted to have fun with Kenzi. We decided to make a Leprechaun trap. Kenzi kept telling me that she could catch it with her hands until I asked her what about when she is asleep. Then she thought the trap was good idea. So on March 16th we put out our trap. And this is pretty much what we found the next morning...

The sign that encourages the Leprechaun to go into the trap as they like to do things they are not suppose to!
Our family was so surprised to find that Leprechaun can walk up walls like Spiderman!

And look at all the gold he dropped when he knocked over the trap! There was even a real Gold Susan B. Anthony coin in there! The other ones are chocolate, which Kenzi is just fine with!
Leprechauns are strong as he tipped over our couch and then walked on the back of it!

Though he likes to make a huge mess, a lot of Kenzi's DVDs were on the floor along with Carters PS games!
Apparently he worked hard as he decided to use Kenzi's blanket and took a nap in the Lovesac!
We left the house this way as Kenzi was so floored by what happened she had to show Ben & Ella. She did ask if the Leprechaun went to their house and I told her that he only goes to houses that have traps because we must have something to hide! It was so fun! We did get video on our iPhones that I will try and load too but this will tie you over for awhile! Enjoy! Kari

Awesome! Love this idea. My sister does something similar except she pretends that her and her husband can't see the leprechaun prints. The kids get such a kick out of it! I can hardly wait till James is old enough (next year?) to do something like this.

That is absolutely BRILLIANT! Well done! We are very impressed (and green with envy, of course). :)
