st patrick's day 2020

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone!!!
We are learning how to navigate this new quarantine/distant learning life! 
To be completely honest I am feeling every single emotion from anger to guilt. 
I felt like such a failure for not being ahead of the game with our traditional St. Patrick's Day breakfast celebration and the girls yearly basket surprise. 
Had you told me earlier this month we wouldn't be allowed to leave our house because of a pandemic, I would have thought you were joking.
Luckily I am a bit of a hoarder and had a few things stored from last year and I was able to order a few things online from Target for drive up pickup.
The result... this morning my girls were thrilled with their surprises and I realized that they do not need some elaborate gift after all.

St. Patrick's Day gift baskets...

*everything is from Target except the Starbucks gift card*

- green basket in the Easter holiday section at Target for $1

- window clings and festive socks from the Dollar Spot 

- Lego set  for less than $10 (I bought Cailee this Moana set  and Charlotte this Aurora set)

- Scunci Glitter Rainbow Snap Clips 12 count  

- Crayola Color Your Bath Bucket Bath Bomb (this item is an 8 count and I bought one and split it between both girls)

Just for fun this was last years St. Patrick's Day breakfast set up...

Wishing you all the luck of the Irish this St. Patrick's Day!!

Easy St. Patrick's Day Class Treats

Popping in today to share some cute treats with you!

I wanted to do something for Cailee's class to celebrate St. Patrick's Day that wasn't all just sweet treats!

After just a few seconds of walking the aisles of Party City with my 6 year old we agreed on the goodies!

We came to a perfect compromise a little fun and a little sweet.

I suggested some cute stickers and sunglasses, which were both approved by the boss!

And we compromised by getting some gold chocolate coins!

We were both pleased with the selection of goodies and I am sure the kiddos will enjoy these little baggies!

The tags are from Eighteen 25! They are free printables and come with different sayings. 

All I did was edit the font colors to green to give it a little something extra!

I got these stickers, they came in a pack of 5 sheets but you can cut them in half and get more out of it!

I got these sunglasses for $5.99 and 12 come in a pack.

The gold coins were from Party City too for like 12 cents each! I literally stood there and counted 72!

Oh ps I got the clear bags at Party City too for $3.99 for a 25 count BUT I was at the Dollar Tree and they had the same clear bags for $1 for a 25 count!

Can't wait to give these to the littles ones and see what they think!

What are your go to class treats for St. Patrick's Day?!!
