The Kempiaks Went Green!


We drove home on St. Patrick’s Day from Yuma and Jon had to work so we decided to celebrate the day afterwards. Everyone is Irish on St. Patrick’s Day, don’t you agree?

We planned our traditional dinner event, “Go Green” where our meal and outfits from head to toe are to be just that, GREEN! Each person in the family, every year, is allotted $7 to spend to add to their green attire already, but knowing the stores would have sales the day after…I made everyone wait to use their $7 until the day of our event (March 18th). What a smart move that was, I love those 50% isles!

So here are the pictures of our evening together. Don’t just sit and enjoy…this is a competition with high stakes you know. Each person in your family needs to place their vote on our blog letting us know who their favorite Green Kempiak is. The person with the most votes, get’s to hold onto our family’s spirit trophy until our next family friendly competition and everyone is hoping to be the proud recipient. It has bragging rights you know!

Come on gals and guys of all ages…let the voting begin!

Kind Baylee: her nails are green as well as having a painted shamrock on her cheek. The shamrock pants along with the glittery go go hat, tiara, and necklace add to her already adorable attire.

Sweet Nathan: okay Mr. Creative, this boy found a way to accessorize using his green light saber as well. His green sweat pants cover his green under*****, and green shirt as well. And Nathan insisted on putting his green jacket with hood on, the entire night, bless his heart!

Adorable Owen: must be maturing fast because this boy even has a green mustache! It suits him well with his array of green clothing which includes his new green hat that reads, “Mommy’s lucky charm!” He too has a shamrock on his face, along with a very “gentleman-like” tie.

Jon: what a fun Leprechaun! Don’t you love his stance? Like father like son, he too has green facial hair tonight as well as a green golfing hat with hair that rests above his green “Jesus loves this guy” t-shirt! Don’t forget to notice his green Chuck Taylor shoes, his favorite!
Kymberly: I tell you, the green wig doesn’t look as good on me as others I’ve seen but when it comes to having fun with it, I’ll do it despite the shade it turns my face. Who says blondes have more fun? So, from head to toe…it’s green. Green shamrock socks to compliment the green plaid shorts and St. Patty’s day shirt (that I got for $1). I’m sure the shamrock tiara just adds to your liking too.

Even Cocoa got dressed for the occasion, sitting next to our Leprechaun friend. He’s the only one that will NOT get the spirit trophy, although he is a BIG part of our family.

Go vote, vote, vote!
