st. patty's day - a little late...

here are some pics of the kids on st. patrick's day.
it is a big day at their school since the school was started by the loreto sisters - an order of nuns from ireland.
they have a carnival for the second half of the school day and all the $$ raised goes back to the order of nuns who started the school.
the kids have a blast.

this year ella made a leprechaun trap...

at the end of the carnival the entire school goes into the gym to watch irish dancing and sing classic irish songs they've learned in music class - it's awesome.

this is the school gathered in the cafeteria last year...

ella danced in the show last year...

it is a fun and festive day and we always look forward to it.
